A fugitive from justice in the 2007 murder of journalist Hrant Dink was captured Friday in Turkey's Aegean region.
Tuncay Uzundal was arrested in his home located in Çeşme in the coastal Izmir province.
On July 17, a court in Istanbul sentenced Uzundal in absentia to 17 years in prison as an accessory to murder as well as terrorist group membership.
Dink, editor-in-chief of the Armenian-Turkish newspaper Agos, was killed outside his office on Jan. 19, 2007.
