Shortly after the release of the film Troy in 2004, an article in Radikal written by Şahin and entitled "Were the Trojans Turks?" attracted public interest and generated a debate over the significance of Troy and the Trojan War in modern Turkey. In 2006 he was among five journalists who stood trial on charges of attempting to influence the outcome of a trial through their writing, and of publicly denigrating Turkish identity and the institutions of the Turkish state. The charges were later dropped.
