  European Court of Human Rights secures Hrant Dink family claim against Turkey  August 23, 2010 - 14:19 AMTPanARMENIAN.Net - The European Court of Human Rights secured the claim of the family of slain Agos newspaper editor Hrant Dink against Turkey, condemning lack of precautionary measures to ensure his safety and ineffective investigation of murder case. Dink, Turkish journalist of Armenian descent who was shot to death by an ultranationalist assailant in January 2007, had filed a case at the European Court of Human Rights seeking annulment of his conviction for insulting Turkishness under Article 301. Following his assassination, his family filed another complaint at the European court against Turkey, saying that despite the gendarmerie and police having been informed about threats and murder plans against Dink, they had failed to take action to prevent the murder. The two cases were then combined by the European court, which will announce a comprehensive ruling on the claim of Dink’s family in early September.
