Five years ago today Armenian journalist Hrant Dink was killed in full daylight while coming out of the offices of the weekly he directed, Agos. Two days ago a court in Istanbul ruled, after a lengthy and flawed investigation and trial, that Yasin Hayal being given an aggravated life sentence on charges of instigation to premeditated murder. He received three months imprisonment for having threatened author Orhan Pamuk and one additional year in jail on the grounds of possessing an unlicensed weapon.

Osman Hayal was acquitted of charges of homicide and of membership of a criminal organization.

Erhan Tuncel was acquitted of charges of membership of an armed terrorist organization and of instigation to homicide.

Tuncel was handed down a prison sentence of ten years and six months on the grounds of the McDonalds bombing.

Salih Hacisalihoðlu was sentenced to 2 months and 15 days behind jail on charges of unlicensed possession of ammunition.

But today in Istanbul thousands of people ask for justice for Hrant Dink, as many perceived juestice was not done with the end of the trial.
