The investigation of Hrant Dink's murder is becoming more and more
large-scale. More and more facts are becoming revealed, mostly due to
the evidence of Yasin Hayal, detained under suspicion of ordering the
murder. As it is known Hayal, knowing that Tuncel was an informer of
the Tarpizon police, changed his evidence on February 9 and stated
that Tuncel was the organizer of the crime and that he had received
the order to kill Dink immediately from him. He also stated that in
prison he was aided by Yasar Cihan, head of "Great Unity" party Trabzon
office, and given $750 for the organization of the explosion at the
"McDonald's" cafe. Taking into consideration this new revelation
by Hayal, the General Prosecutor's office roused a new criminal
investigation against the "Great Unity" party.
Meanwhile, as "Vatan" newspaper reports, Hayal gave new evidence. This
time a new investigation is roused by the demand of Hayal's lawyer
Fatih Cakr, basing upon Hayal's new statement that the organizer of
the murder of Hrant Dink was the head of anti-terrorism department
of the Trabzon police.
The aforementioned department chief is Yahya Ozturk, of whom Fatih
Cakr's petition says the following: "Charged Erhan Tuncel passed Yasin
Hayal these words of Yahya Ozturk, head of anti-terrorism department of
the Trabzon police, 'Our national Flag has been defamed. The mission
of recovering its dignity is laid upon Erhan and Yasin'. These words
were taken as background for murdering Hrant Dink ".
Getting out of the Court Hall, Cakr said to the reports, "Me as an
attorney of Yasin Hayal, after a conversation with him at the place
of detention represented his statements to the Prosecutor's Office.
Some are trying to mess up Trabzon on purpose. Erhan Tuncel uses
the youth in order to reach his aim. I shall fight against him till
the end."
