The court ruled that Turkey should have, but failed to, take steps to protect Dink, the prominent Armenian-Turkish journalist, and failed to conduct an effective investigation into his murder in January 2007. The European Court ordered the government to pay his family ?105,000 in damages.”

The European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) merged five separate cases on the murder of Hrant Dink, a Turkish-Armenian journalist who was killed in 2007, and made its ruling. It found the Turkish Republic guilty of failing to protect Dink?s life.
How was Hrant Dink killed? Hrant Dink was killed as a result of a concerted and prolonged campaign of the deep state, media and ultranationalist fascists in Turkey. His death was a direct result of the infected system in Turkey.
Commenting on the referendum results, Abdurrahman Yalçınkaya, the chief prosecutor of the Supreme Court of Appeals, told journalists that even if the Constitution is amended, he and his colleagues are determined to defend the rule of law and the independence of the judiciary.
