The group unfurled placards and shouted slogans. A press statement
was made before the trial began. Speaking on behalf of the group,
journalist Aydın Engin stated that murder of Dink was used as a
politic tool by the government and today the murder is associated with
"parallel state".
"We know Dink was murdered with collaboration of provocateurs with
police, soldier and National Intelligence Organization (MÄ°T). They
[government] cannot attribute the trial neither to the parallel
state nor to another state," said Engin. He added that the government
should fulfill its responsibility to enable trail of the convicted
in a fair way.
