Mourners numbering in the tens of thousands walked five miles in silence through Istanbul January 23, following the coffin of slain journalist Hrant Dink to the Surp Asdvadzadzin Patriarchal Church for his funeral.
Dink, who had written and spoken publicly for years on behalf of Armenians living in Turkey, was killed Friday outside the office of his newspaper, Agos.
