Turkey: Terrorist held after 20 years in hiding
[AA.TR] A convicted terrorist who was in hiding for over 20 years was arrested in the city of Mus, southeastern The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the occupiers of Greek Asia Minor...
on Wednesday, security sources said.

In 2000, the man, identified by the initials Y.Y., was convicted of "being a member of the Hezbollah terrorist organization" and sentenced in absentia to six years and three months in prison.

The Hezbollah terror group in Turkey, which was founded in late 1980s, is not affiliated with Hezbollah in Leb
...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
, and it is often referred to as "the Ottoman Turkish Hezbollah" (or Hizbullah
...Party of God, a Leb militia inspired, founded, funded and directed by Iran. Hizbullah refers to itself as The Resistance and purports to defend Leb against Israel, with whom it has started and lost one disastrous war to date, though it did claim victory...
)
Good lord, does every Arab country have its own Party of God? Thus far that’s Lebanon, Iraq, and now Turkey. How unimaginative — at least all the Muslim Brotherhoods are connected and working toward the same goal.
Having managed to evade capture for two decades, the suspect was caught in an operation by gendarmerie forces, who found out that he was hiding in a village close to the city center.

An operation was conducted and the suspect was found holed up in a secret hiding spot in his house.

It was learnt that, for 20 years, the suspect had been hiding in stables during the summer, and a secret room during the winter.

He was assisted by neighbors, who would alert him whenever security forces were in the area.
