Hrant Dink (1954-2007) was a Turkish-Armenian editor, journalist, and columnist, known for advocating Turkish-Armenian reconciliation and minority rights in Turkey. As the editor of the bilingual newspaper Agos, he faced legal action under Article 301 for 'insulting Turkishness' due to his outspoken views on the Armenian Genocide and Turkey's denial of it. Dink was assassinated in Istanbul in January 2007 by a nationalist, an act that sparked public outrage and protests. His death led to increased criticism of Article 301 and heightened awareness of human rights issues in Turkey.
