    French court fines Turkish women for rejecting Armenian "genocide"
    Wed 06 January 2010 | 07:01 GMT Text size:


    The Court of French Lyons has fined Turkish Sirma Iran for rejecting
    the "genocide" of Armenians.

    She was found guilty under the articles of the Criminal Code of France
    envisioning punishment for rejecting "genocide" and was fined with
    1500 euros.

    According to Hurriyet, Oran considered the decision of the court as
    shameful and said she intends to appeal against the decision of the
    Lyons court to the Supreme Court and if the latter does not take the
    just decision, she threatened to get to the European court.

    Sirma Oran has become the first Turkish woman that was punished in
    France for rejecting the fact of Armenian "genocide". Earlier the
    criminal case was instituted on this article against Turkish general
    consul in Paris Aydin Sezgin, yet the court did not institute a
    criminal case due to the diplomatic immunity.

    Sirma Oran Martz, daughter of publicist Baskin Oran, was obliged to
    withdraw her candidacy for deputy to Lyons municipality as she refused
    to recognize "Armenian genocide".
