Obama's BFF Erdoğan's Dictatorial crackdown on any opposition, now sues Gülen-linked journalists.


Obama's BFF Erdoğan's Dictatorial crackdown on any opposition, now sues Gülen-linked journalists.(HD).

A columnist regarded as close to the Gülen Movement was briefly detained in Ankara March 29 as in the investigation on the leak of a recording of top security officials discussing possible military action in Syria, while Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan filed several petitions for lawsuits.

Prosecutor Tekin Küçük has reportedly ordered the arrest, but Aytaç was not at his house when the police raided it at night. Aytaç, who is also a scholar, later went to the police station himself and was detained there due to the "impression" that he had knowledge of the Syria meeting leak, semi-official Anadolu Agency reported. Aytaç was released after testifying.


Prime Minister Erdoğan has filed a petition for lawsuit against Aytaç and Emre Uslu, another pundit close to the Gülen movement, claiming the two pundits are among "usual suspects" in the espionage investigation.

Erdoğan has also sued Today's Zaman editor-in-chief Bülent Keneş and daily Zaman columnist Mehmet Kamış, stating in the petition that two journalists "mocked" his tired voice and "insulted" him on Twitter.


Former Istanbul police intelligence department head Ali Fuat Yılmazer is another individual who has been sued by Prime Minister Erdoğan. Hmmm.....Erdogan feels so at home in Iran, that he started transforming Turkey in Iran.
