10 suspects linked to attack on Turkish publishing house arrested
2007-04-20
Ten people were arrested Thursday following an attack on a publishing house in Malatya province, east of Turkey. Malatya governor Halil Ibrahim Dasoz told Anadolu News Agency that five of the suspects attacking "Zirve" publications for books and leaflets on Christianity were put under arrest while the others were still interrogated.
Old school.
Dasoz revealed the investigations were still ongoing, adding that whether the attack was terror motivated still remained to be seen. The governor revealed that the status of one of the suspects who jumped from the building's third floor prevented the police from holding investigations. Yesterday's attack resulted in the death of three people, one of them was a German national, while one person was injured. According to media here, the publishing house received threats in the past but the owners did not seek security assistance.

#2  The victims were apparently tortured, as well.

So, y'know, make with the pliers, Achmed...

IIRC, the Germans currently hold the EU presidency. That would make for "vigorous" interrogations, I'd think.
