Cases Against Dink Dropped
One of the cases, where Dink was tried with the infamous article 301 of the Turkish Penal Code concerning his statements about the Armenian genocide claims during an interview with the Reuters news agency has been postponed to June 14.
Talking to bianet about the trials, lawyer Fethiye Çetin said the trial which involves writers and administrators of the Agos newspaper Aydın Engin, Sakis Seropyan and Arat Dink would continue as planned.
They are on trial on grounds of publishing the interview made with Hrant Dink.
All three will also face court on allegations of influencing the due judicial process via press. They face 4.5 years imprisonment if convicted.
Following his death, allegations on Hrant Dink have been separated from the case and dropped.(EÖ/EÜ)
