INSTANBUL, MAY 15, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. The Turkish press
continues publishing interesting information concerning the case of
Agos weekly editor-in-chief Hrant Dink's murder.
According to Hurriyet, about 4 months before Dink's murder two unknown
people, presenting themselves as policemen, examined the yard-keeper
of the editorial office building, attempting to find out how many
children Dink had, where was at the moment and if the yard-keeper
knew other people close with his family. Then the latter's religious
belonging was defined, and getting to know that he was a Moslem,
they asked if he knew that Hrant Dink wrote in his articles that the
Turk's blood must be cleaned by the Armenian's blood. "And at the end
those people told me: "Tell Dink to become reasonable, we shall not
allow him live for a long time, we shall kill." "And I informed the
editor-in-chief about it but he told me: "Do not be afraid, what is
writ large on one's face that will happen." And, as I informed Hrant
Dink and the building manager about it, I did not think at all about
addressing to the police," the yard-keeper said.
