Ni?anyan was jailed on Dec. 2, 2014 for “construction infractions.” “The bird has flown. Wish the same for 80 million left behind,” Ni?anyan said in a Tweet on July 14.

Ni?anyan confirmed the reports to Turkish Habert?rk news agency by phone but declined to give details of when and how managed his escape. According to some reports,»Ni?anyan was»allowed to leave prison for one day every three months and simply did not return after his latest sanctioned leave.

‘The bird has flown. Wish the same for 80 million left behind,’ Ni?anyan said in a Tweet on July 14.

Ni?anyan was sentenced to a total of 17 years in a number of cases, Agos news reported.

“If Ni?anyan really has escaped from prison, I would like to congratulate him,” said Turkish-Armenian journalist Hayko Ba?dat, who has been living in exile in Germany, in a tweet.

Ni?anyan came to public attention in Turkey in January, when he announced that Turkey’s Justice Ministry had banned all newspapers and books from prisons except for the Quran as of Jan. 9.

The Armenian Weekly will be closely following developments and provide updates as they become available.
