Constantinople till 1930

"Turkish Republic period 1923 as Constantinople, officially renamed as Istanbul in 1930"
With the Turkish Postal Service Law of March 28, 1930, the Turkish authorities officially requested foreigners to adopt Istanbul as the sole name also in their own languages.

I did some searching and as per Talk:Names of Istanbul I can't find a record of such law. However the US State Department did switch in 1930 WhisperToMe (talk) 04:38, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

murdered by authorities?

Was he murdered by authorities? As far as I know, He was arrested on June 3, 1915 and ordered to appear before a court-martial in Diyarbakir together with another Armenian member of the Ottoman Parliament, Vartkes Serengulyan. However, en-route, their party was attacked by a group of bandits led by Cherkez Ahmet, Nazim and Halil. Both Zohrab and Serengulyan were murdered. The murderers were tried and executed in September 1915 by one of the Young Turk leaders, Cemal Pasha, in Damascus. Yakamoz51 (talk) 21:18, 29 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
