In the second military court of Diyarbekir another hearing was held on the case of the murder on April 24, 2011, of an Armenian soldier Sevag Sahin Balikci, committed by a colleague.

As the Turkish website Diyarbakirsoz.com informs, the court during the hearing on the case of the murder on April 24, 2011, of an Armenian soldier Sevag Sahin Balikci, once again refused to allow the arrest of the main suspect on the case, Kivanc Agaoglu. Moreover, Agaoglu asked the court to provide him with bodyguards, saying that some Armenian structures allegedly prepares a murder attempt at him.

MP from the Kurdish party “Peace and Democracy” Nursel Aydogan said Sevag’s death was not a coincidence.

“Such an act on April 24 - the day of the Armenian massacres - is not accidental. It was specially prepared assassination,” the Kurdish MP said.

On April 24, 2011, in one of the units of the Turkish Armed Forces a soldier was killed - ethnic Armenian Sevag Sahin Balikci. The family of a dead soldier demanded a comprehensive and detailed investigation of the case and turned to the lawyers who need to learn the results of the autopsy.

The army officials of Turkey claimed that the killing was unintended: the colleague killed him as a result of careless handling of weapons.
