    Cemal Pasha grandson to present Genocide book in Yerevan

    December 6, 2014 - 16:41 AMT


    PanARMENIAN.Net - Yerevan will host a presentation of the "1915: The
    Armenian Genocide" book, authored by Hassan Cemal, the grandson of the
    Genocide orchestrator Cemal Pasha.

    The event will be held December 11 in the framework of the Civilitas
    Foundation project Climbing the Mountain.

    A prominent Turkish journalist and writer, Hasan Cemal was the Chief
    Editor of the Cumhuriyet daily, and columnist for Sabah and Milliyet
    daily papers. He extensively covered the Kurdish issue and has been
    criticized by the Turkish government for his publications.

    In 2008, after a visit to the Genocide Memorial in Yerevan, Hasan
    Cemal left a note in the commemorative book, stating that the denial
    of the 1915 atrocities spells complicity in this crime against
    humanity. In his book released in 2012, Hasan Cemal highlights his
    personal experience of going from the Genocide denial to the
    recognition of the tragedy.
