After Turkish-Armenian journalist Hayko Bagdat’s arrival in Istanbul airport the police immediately seized his passport.

The author of the Diken edition told Agos newspaper that the police officers took away his passport, without giving any explanation. They have only declared that they would inform him about the reasons of such action  one of these days. According to the reporter, in the next few days the Armenian deputies Garo Palyan and Selina Dogan will demand explanations in the Turkish Parliament.

One of the Turkish Internet users has recently written that Hayko Bagdat is suspected of  having links to Fethullah Gülen, however, the journalist called this statement absurd.
