Yasin Hayal: I thought perpetrator would remain unknown

PanARMENIAN.Net - Yasin Hayal, the Trabzon man who has admitted being behind the murder of Agos Armenian-Turkish newspaper editor Hrant Dink, told police that he thought the perpetrator of the crime would "remain unknown" after the event, reports Hurriyet. Hayal also said in his admission that he had told another Trabzon resident, Zeynel Abidin Yavuz, that if he killed Dink, Yavuz would "become a hero" and that the "whole world would know his name." Yavuz later rejected Hayal's urgings to carry out the crime, at which point Hayal turned to 17 year old Ogun Samast, the young man who was caught after pulling the trigger on the gun that killed Dink in broad daylight on an Istanbul street two Fridays ago.
