Turkish parliament forms sub-commission to investigate Dink murder
The Human Rights Commission of the Parliament decided to form a sub-commission to work on the assassinations of Agos editor-in-chief Hrant Dink and Nigerian migrant Festus Okey, who was shot to death by a policeman.

The sub-commission will go to Istanbul and Trabzon, the hometown of the confessed gunman of Dink, and will make some inquiries careful not to affect the legal procedure, because the issues are handed to judiciary bodies, and will submit its report to the Parliament Speaker's Office. The commission will be able to intervene on both issues if deemed necessary, reported the Anatolia news agency.

The commission is chaired by ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) deputy Zafer Usluk.
