Ogun Samast, a 17-year-old from the eastern city of Trabzon, has confessed to killing the journalist for his statements regarding the 1915-1917 killings of 1.5 million Armenians, which Dink described as genocide -- an account sharply disputed by Turkey.
Ogun Samast, 17-godišnjak iz grada Trabzona na istoku zemlje, priznao je da je ubio novinara zbog njegovih izjava vezanih za ubistvo 1,5 miliona Jermena u periodu 1915-1917, koje je Dink opisao kao genocid -- što Turska odlučno osporava.
