Around 10,000 people gathered in front of the Agos newspaper office in order to remember Armenian-Turkish journalist Hrant Dink, murdered there two years ago.

Following an appeal by Halil Ergün to join the apology campaign, the crowd listened to a piece of music in Dink’s memory, followed by a moment of silence.

The crowd shouted slogans such as “For Hrant, for justice”, “Gangs will be acccountable to the people” and “We are all Hrant, we are all Armenian.” (EZÖ-AT/AG)
