An Istanbul court sentenced one man to life in prison for the 2007 murder of prominent ethnic Armenian journalist Hrant Dink but it ruled that the killing was not a conspiracy.

The court found Yasin Hayal, 31, guilty of incitement to kill Dink but acquitted several other suspects, provoking the anger of the journalist's family and lawyers.
