With a huge portrait of the ethnic Armenian journalist covering part of the building where he worked and candles lit on the street, the mourners observed a minute of silence at the exact time he was shot by Ogun Samast, who is described as a hardline nationalist from the Black Sea city of Trabzon.
Un portret uriaş al jurnalistului de etnie armeană acoperea o parte din clădirea unde acesta lucra, iar pe străzi erau aprinse lumânări. Participanţii la ceremonie au ţinut un moment de tăcere exact la momentul când a fost împuşcat de Ogun Samast, un naţionalist extremist din oraşul Trabzon de la Marea Neagră.
