We held a muted celebration to mark the birthday of our remanded columnists, cartoonists and managers Akın Atalay, Kadri Gürsel and Musa Kart along with the sixtieth year in the profession of our paper’s Foundation Chair Orhan Erinç. Erinç, addressing the celebration that was also attended by our remanded columnists and managers’ wives, said, ‘Why are our colleagues inside? They are doing time inside because they wrote and portrayed the truth.’
