 | | This series dealt with the massacres in the district of Yozgat, which in the Ottoman provincial administration setup represented the unit of Sancak (district) within the boundaries of the province (vilayet) of Ankara. |
 | | According to Ottoman statistics, of a total pre-war Armenian population of 33,133 in Yozgat district, 31,147 were "deported." Of these, 3208 were from Akdag Madeni kaza, 13,259 from Yozgat kaza, and 14,680 from the 15 villages of Bogazliyan kaza. |
 | | As a result of this refutation, Yozgats gendarmery battalion commander Major Tevfik, the second defendant, felt constrained to amend his testimony about a sup-posed Armenian "insurgency." He conceded that his use of the word meant acts of resistance by fugitives trying to escape military service or deportation (15th sitting, March 27, 1919). |
