The statement says Miklos Kharashti assesses this court poppet show as an attempt to conceal the persons, really responsible for stabbing Agil Halil.

"After the prosecutor's office dropped the criminal case on the fact of Agil's being attacked by two officers, it started a large smear PR against the journalist", says the statement.
