Turks threaten Italian and Turkish journalists with reprisal
Italian journalist and the author of L'olocausto armeno, Alberto Rosselli has been receiving death threats for three years already.

Anonymous phone calls started several months after the publication of his book, in 2007. The police said those were trunk calls. At that, the callers were aware of the everyday life of Mr. Rosselli and his wife, independent French journalist Jean Eckian told PanARMENIAN.Net.

The head of Info-Turk news agency, Dogan Ozguden, is threatened with Lynch law not only by ultra-nationalist Turkish press but also by the Turkish Embassy in Belgium, where he had to migrate in 1971, over his position on the Armenian Genocide.
