The Kurdish Peace and Democracy Party (BDP), which will participate in the parliamentary elections with independent candidates, is discussing the candidature of the murdered journalist Hrant Dink’s brother Orhan Dink.

According to Firat news agency, the party has started accepting the applications of candidates for nomination.

“The BDP, who is nowadays discussing about the nomination of SDP President Rıdvan Turan within the scope of ‘Democratic bloc’, intends to make a candidature offer to Hrant Dink’s brother Orhan Dink,” the source writes.

Earlier this month BDP decided to nominate Hayko Baghdad, an Istanbul Armenian journalist.
