Turkish presses printed photos on Friday showing the author of the assassination of editor in chief of the “Agos” weekly Hrant Dink, Ogyun Samast, with the Turkish flag and policemen standing next to him. Some policemen were in uniforms. There is also a big poster of the Turkish flag behind Samast and the words of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk: “The land of the country is saint and it can’t be left to the fate of destiny.” “Associated Press” writes that the Turkish presses are disappointed that Turkey turned the assassin into a hero. As a matter of fact, it’s not clear as to where the photos were taken-at the bus stop where police caught Samast, or at the police headquarters. Speaker of the Police department Ismayil Chaliskan has declared that the police in the photo are currently under prosecution. The people suspected of giving the photos to the presses are also being prosecuted.
