Hope they do! Apparently this is the picture and related article:
Ismet Berkan, editor of the Radikal newspaper, said that the footage proved "that the murderer and his associates are not alone, that their supporters... have penetrated all segments of the state".
Police spokesman Ismail Caliskan said an investigation was under way into officers seen in the footage, as well as into who leaked it to the media.

I assumed when i first heard about this 'deep' state, it was just a hard core of powerful ultra
conservatives within the military and their supporters within the rest
of state apparatus. I have to ask; is it really organized or more a motley collection of like minded groups?

Why would the 'deep state' bother with Hrant Dink? No, I do not see any connection.

True enough, but that's a different story.

Does it still seem a different story?....

Yes, since that event occured in a police station.
At first, the media claimed that it was a gendarme HQ, but the general staff denied in a harsh tone.
I knew it from the beginning. There are many far right nationalists among high ranking police officers.
