At the end of 2006, three months before the murder of Armenian-Turkish weekly Agos chief editor Hrant Dink, Turkish authorities had charged Dink under Article 301 of the Turkish Penal Code for “insulting (or denigrating) Turkishness.” The incident for which he was charged was an interview with Reuters in 2004 in which he said that what happened with Armenians in 1915 in Turkey was genocide.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Not only Dink, but also other Agos staff, including Arat Dink and Sarkis Serobyan, were charged under Article 301.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
According to Agos, Turkey’s Ministry of Justice now has decided to suspend the criminal case against the accused.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This decision comes 4 years after the men were accused.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
