The OSCE Representative on Freedom of the Media Dunja Mijatovic' urged the Turkish authorities to intensify efforts to find those responsible for the murder of Armenian journalist of Istanbul Hrant Dink, the OSCE office told ''Armenpress''.

''Year after year, we remember the anniversary of Hrant Dink's murder, honouring his brave words advocating for minoruty rights, and paying tribute to his exceptional efforts to create peace. But we do so knowing that even a decade on, the masterminds behind this tragedy are still at large. I urge the authorities of Turkey to increase their efforts to ensure that justice is served and to porovide closure for the friends and family of Hrant Dink after an agonizing decade of questions. Authorities must reinforce the vital message to society that those who commit violence against journalists cannot do so with impunity'', Dunja Mijatovic' said.
