    Thousands of people marked the 4th anniversary of the death of Hrant
    Dink, the chief editor of the Agos newspaper. The commemoration was
    held at the editorial office of the Agos newspaper, January 19.

    The NEWS.am correspondent reports from Istanbul that a number of
    members of the Turkish Parliament, the daughter of the assassinated
    editor of the Milliyet newspaper, as well as a number of well-known
    journalists took part in the action. A group of people, marching
    toward the editorial office of the Agos newspaper, was crying out: "The
    ruling party is concealing the assassin", "We are all Armenians", "No
    justice for four years", "Murderer-state will be called to account".

    The Turkish-Armenian journalist Hrant Dink was assassinated near the
    editorial office of the Agos newspaper, January 19, 2007. His death
    evoked wide response both inside and outside Turkey. Large-scale
    actions of protests were held in Turkey.

    The Turkish authorities named the suspect, Ogun Samast. He was arrested
    later and pleaded guilty.
