    RAKEL DINK CALLS ON TURKISH PM TO SPEED UP TRIAL PROCESS

    NTV MSNBC, Turkey
    May 17 2007

    More than a dozen suspects have been detained in connection with
    Dink's slaying.

    ISTANBUL - The wife of murdered Turkish Armenian journalist Hrant
    Dink, has said she does not want to see the death of her husband
    turned into a cover up.

    In a letter sent to Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan Rakel Dink
    said she was concerned at the slow pace of the investigation and
    judicial processes surrounding the case of her husband's murder.

    Hrant Dink was gunned down outside his Istanbul office on January 19,
    after receiving numerous death threats from nationalist and right
    wing groups.

    Though more than a dozen persons have been taken into custody,
    including a 17 year old youth accused of shooting Dink, the
    investigation into the attack is continuing.

    Rakel Dink called on Erdogan to appoint a prime ministry inspection
    council to investigate case in detail.
