MosJan Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 http://www.aina.org/images/fuat1.jpg Örebro, Sweden (AINA) -- Dr. Fuat Deniz, a renowned lecturer and Ph.D researcher in the field of sociology at Örebro University, was pronounced dead today by Örebro University Hospital; Dr. Deniz was stabbed in the neck by an unknown assailant on Tuesday. The murder of a teacher during day time and in his own workplace has shocked the community in Örebro, a mid size Swedish town. There are no witnesses to the stabbing and no suspect yet. Police are working to secure forensic evidence, survey the victim's daily routine and his circle of acquaintances. Sweden's equivalent to the FBI, the Swedish security police (SÄPO), have announced they are looking into this case because the attack could have a political motive. SÄPO noted that Mr. Fuat Deniz dedicated much of his research to Assyrian identity and the Turkish genocide of Assyrians. His masters thesis, A Minority's Odyssey: the Assyrian Example, was praised for its way of describing developments in social identities among Assyrians. The Swedish research and university minister, Lars Leijonborg, participated in the commemoration ceremony held in Örebro on Thursday, expressing his sorrow for the loss of a promising teacher and researcher. "Dr. Fuat Deniz and his family came to our country to escape violence and assaults. It is a terrible tragedy that this has happened to him. He was not only a national hero for Assyrians but a role model for many in our society," said the minister with tearful eyes. The Swedish flag in front of the Örebro University was flown at half mast and hundreds of students at the university were present during the ceremony. It was revealed that Dr. Fuat was to receive the universities' "good educator" award next week. He was admired among colleagues and students, who chose him as their favorite for the award. Dr. Fuat was to participate in an international conference on Assyrian identity and the Turkish Assyrian genocide at the University of Leiden in Holland on Friday 14 December. Abboud Ado, vice chairman of the Assyrian federation of Sweden, expressed his feelings of sorrow and announced that all Assyrian associations in Sweden have been instructed to place a picture of Dr. Deniz and open their doors for people who want to share their grief. The Syriac Orthodox bishop of Scandinavia, Ablahad Gallo Shabo, said his death is an immense loss for Sweden and the Assyrians. Dr. Fuats daughter celebrated her third birthday last Monday.

NoComment Posted December 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 (edited) Some collegues of the lector Fuat Deniz where allready threatened for their works. They are now showing their fears that this was a political act and that they are next professor David Gaunt: - theirs a threat to all the one who are doing research on the assyrians and the genocide in the ottoman empire, - they were people who shown upp to our seminaries as a journalist and who takes fotos of all the participants - even if was not allways direct threats, they were insInuated. This is a very sensible question, where searching is taken as a political manner. Every one who are interested on the christians minorities in turkey are threatened - Oh God, I hope that this is not a political murder, because we are next, says Atty Tunc a dutch politician - They are watching us, threatening us abd now they killed Fuad Deniz, says a dutch researcher who want to stay anonymous http://www.svd.se/nyheter/inrikes/artikel_690155.svd Edited December 15, 2007 by NoComment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoComment Posted December 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 nobody knows the motivs of this act, nethertheless we learned that even in our western countries, searchers are threatened when they look in this "particular chapter" http://www.auf.nu/index.php?lang=en A message to the mourning Assyrians We learn with disappointment that the gossip factory and speculations on the death of our friend, the sociologist Fuat Deniz, are overshadowing everything else. We believe the early reactions are animated by the best intentions and we do pay respect to anyone’s personal perception and grief over the loss of a well-known and respected fellow-countryman. Still, it is important to emphasize that the run of events of the past days resembles a downright exploitation of the terrible event. This is dishonourable to Fuat, disrespectful towards and his family. Different renowned and respected individuals have put rumours and hearsay in circulation without giving deeper thoughts about them and by this have instrumentalized and politicized both Fuat and his research. These speculations finally found their way into big headlines. Quotes taken out of context and careless description of Fuats publications have given a wrong picture of his research. The conspiracy theories and rumours have not done any good, but only caused hystery and panic. This is of no avail. The Assyrians should recollect themselves immediately and leave scope to the authorities and their investigations. Just setting terms and focusing on a motive without any facts leads to nothing but confusion and chaos. Whatever might be reason behind the awful murder, the clarification should be in focus of the Assyrian interest. We ask everybody, as a sense of respect to the family of Fuat Deniz, to recollect and think through statements before making them in public or internal debates. The legacy of Dr. Fuat Deniz deserves better then degenerating into an emotional mudslinging. One should remember him as who he really was: an idealist who always encouraged the Assyrian youth to educate and study. His large interest for Assyrian identity as the driving force of his research, his warm and friendly personality, all this should be commemorated by the Assyrian people. Fuat Deniz should be remembered with respect. We all should bethink that he has left his immediate family in deepest sorrow.

NoComment Posted January 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 Suspect admits stabbing lecturer Published: 18 Jan 08 16:36 CET A 42-year-old man has been remanded in custody on suspicion of murdering Örebro University lecturer Fuat Deniz. Murder suspect 'was related' to lecturer (18 Jan 08) Murdered lecturer 'knew suspect' (17 Jan 08) Man arrested for university killing (16 Jan 08) The suspect, who police say is related to Deniz, has admitted stabbing the 40-year-old academic. He has however denied that there was any intent to kill his relation during the attack at the university's sports complex on December 11th last year. In a custody hearing at Örebro District Court on Friday afternoon, the suspect claimed to have called police after the attack that led to the death two days later of Fuat Deniz. Police said earlier in the day that an old feud between the two family members was the most likely motive for the killing. "The political motive is no longer valid," spokesman Torbjörn Carlson told SVT. http://www.thelocal.se/9699/20080118/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
