"Freedom of Thought Prize awarded to Turkish journalists
Two Turkish journalists working in Belgium were recently honored for more than 30 years of covering human rights in their home country.
The Human Rights Association of Turkey gave the 2006 Ayse Zarakolu Freedom of Thought Prize to Dogan Ozguden and Inci Tugsavul. The two journalists founded Info-Turk, an NGO that reports on issues that are controversial in Turkey, such as anti-Semitism and the Armenian Genocide. They are subject to arrest in their home country, for alleged “crimes of opinion” and insults to “Turkishness.”"
