Shots fired into air in Istanbul after requiem service devoted to memory of Hrant Dink
On March 4, shots were heard near the St. Virgin Mary Church in Istanbul, when the ceremony of the fortieth day obit of Hrant Dink, the editor-in-chief of the Armenian-Turkish "Agos" newspaper, had just finished in the church.
According to Radio Liberty, the requiem service was held by Archbishop Mesrob Mutafian, the Patriarch of Constantinople of the Armenian Apostolic Church.
At 2:15 PM, Sunday, two young men entered the yard of the church, fired into the air and ran away. They were arrested Sunday evening and taken to the Department of Struggle against Terrorism. The young men's names were published in the "Hurriet" newspaper, Monday.
