Freedom of the Media in Turkey and the Killing of Hrant Dink

Research output: Book/ReportPublished Reportpeer-review

Abstract

This trial observation report illustrates how the failure of the State to safeguard the right to freedom of expression and the media led to the death of one of Turkeys most prominent journalists, Hrant Dink. In July 2007 KHRP organised a joint mission with BHRC, Index on Censorship and Article 19 to observe the opening of the trial of Dinks alleged assassins. This report attempts to outline the background to the killing of Hrant Dink and examines the indictment against the alleged perpetrators as well as claims of State complicity in the murder.
