    Istanbul, 4 January: A five-strong Turkish parliamentary human rights
    committee visited the family members of late journalist Hrant Dink in

    The committee held a meeting with Dink's spouse Rakel Dink, brother
    Orhan, son Arat and lawyer of the Dink family. The meeting lasted 1
    hour and 20 minutes.

    "We have received information that will guide us in our
    investigation. It was a fruitful meeting," said Mehmet Ocaktan,
    chairman of the committee.

    The committee has finished working in Istanbul and will conduct
