MOSCOW (Sputnik) — On Tuesday, NYDN's Gersh Kuntzmann wrote in the article he was "shedding no tears" over the assassination of Karlov which he called an example of "justice [being] served."
"The US newspaper New York Daily News published an article in which the murder of Andrey Karlov is directly justified and welcomed while the murderer is glorified. This is an unprecedented insolence, lack of the slightest sign of compassion, sympathy, and, moreover, it is public support for terrorism," Kadyrov posted in his Instagram account.
Kuntzman earlier refused to apologize for the controversial article. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said Wednesday that the ministry would send a letter demanding an apology from the newspaper.
On Monday, Karlov was killed by Turkish off-duty police officer Mevlut Mert Altintas at an art gallery exhibition opening in Ankara.
