    German Ambassador Cuntz Condemns Assassination Of Dink

    ANKARA - German Ambassador to Ankara Eckart Cuntz strongly condemned
    the assassination on Friday of Hrant Dink, editor-in-chief of
    bilingual Turkish-Armenian weekly Agos.

    Cuntz said that Dink was struggling for freedom of press and
    expression in Turkey.

    He expressed his hope that Turkish officials would soon capture the
    murderer.

    On the other hand, releasing a statement, Committee of Defense of
    Armenian Cause (CDCA) in France also condemned the attack.

    Dink was shot in front of his office building in Halaskargazi street
    in Sisli district of Istanbul, and died instantly at the scene.
    Police detained two people over the assassination.
