Eyewitnesses say a prominent Turkish journalist was shot at moments before a verdict was to be given in his trial for allegedly revealing state secrets.
The assailant is said to have shouted "traitor" before firing three shots at Can Dundar outside the court in Istanbul.
Dundar, the editor-in-chief of the opposition Cumhuriyet newspaper, was unharmed, however a bullet reportedly grazed the leg of a reporter covering the trial.
