The trial of acclaimed Turkish novelist Orhan Pamuk on charges of insulting his nation, has been suspended minutes after his first court appearance.
An Istanbul judge said the prosecution could not proceed until it had been approved by the ministry of justice.

Mr Pamuk is accused over remarks about the alleged mass killing of Kurds and Ottoman Armenians - deaths Turkey insists cannot be classed as genocide.

The EU has warned the trial raises doubts over free speech in Turkey.
