Hasan Cemal is a prominent Turkish journalist and writer. He was the Chief Editor of the Cumhuriyet daily, columnist for the Sabah and Milliyet daily papers. Hasan Cemal has extensively covered the Kurdish issue and has been criticized by the Turkish government for his articles and interviews.

 

In his book “1915: The Armenian Genocide ” published in 2012, Hasan Cemal describes how he went from being someone who denied the Armenian Genocide, to one who recognizes it.

 

Cemal Pasha, Minister of the Marine of Ottoman Empire, was one of the three main perpetrators of the Armenian Genocide. On July 25, 1922, Petros Ter-Poghosyan and Artashes Gevorgyan killed Cemal Pasha in Tiflis as part of Operation Nemesis.
