ISTANBUL

Gaye CoÃ…?ar, a Turkish journalist, has lost her life following a road
accident in the Armenian capital Yerevan.

CoÃ…?ar, who was in the country as part of the Armenia-Turkey
Normalization Process program, funded by the European Union, succumbed
to her wounds on Jan. 7 in Yerevan, after the accident took place last
week.

The 40-year-old had worked at daily Evrensel, broadcaster NTV and
lately at Al-Jazeera’s Turkey arm. She also worked as an interpreter
for a number of organizations and foundations.

CoÃ…?ar had received a bursary from the Hrant Dink Foundation, named
after the assassinated Turkish-Armenian journalist Hrant Dink.

Her family said she would be buried in the Central Anatolian province
of Kütahya after her body is brought back from Armenia.
