"Swiss court confirms conviction of Turks for genocide denial
Zurich’s Court of Appeals confirmed Tuesday the initial verdict of a Swiss district court that ruled three Swiss citizens of Turkish descent were guilty of denying Armenian genocide claims, daily Vatan reported yesterday.
The defendants, Ali Mercan, Hasan Kemahlı and Ethem Kayalı, had denounced Armenians’ claims of genocide as lies at a meeting in 2007 in the Swiss district of Winterthur. Mercan is the foreign representative of the Turkey-based Workers Party, while Kemahlı and Kayalı are members of the Atatürkçü Düşünce Derneği, a Turkey-based think tank."
