16 alleged Mossad spies go on trial in Turkey
|
|
This is the one where Turkey’s National Intelligence Organization (MIT) tied up 200 intelligence officers following Palestinians and Syrians on the assumption that they were Mossad agents, a charge Mossad denied. But government mouthpiece Sabah headlined Turkey’s intelligence triumph, so the poor shmoes are being charged, jailed, and tried anyway. [IsraelTimes] Pro-government paper says initial hearings to last four days; suspects charged with ’political and military’ espionage on behalf of Israel
Sixteen people went on trial in Istanbul on Tuesday, charged with "political and military" espionage on behalf of Israel, Ottoman Turkish media reports said.
The defendants, including Paleostinians and Syrians, were arrested in October in an operation by The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
 ...the decaying remnant of the Ottoman Empire...
’s national intelligence agency, MIT, according to the pro-government Sabah newspaper and other Ottoman Turkish media. They face up to 20 years in prison if convicted.
The suspects allegedly spied on Paleostinian and Ottoman Turkish students and other people on behalf of Israel, operating in five separate groups, Sabah newspaper reported. Some of the suspects allegedly met with Israeli officials in Switzerland
...home of the Helvetians, famous for cheese, watches, yodeling, and William Tell...
, Croatia, Romania and Kenya.
Ottoman Turkish intelligence officers reportedly monitored the group for a year before they were arrested.
Ottoman Turkish officials have not commented on the arrests.
Sabah said the initial hearings in the trial would last four days.
Following the arrests in October, the former deputy chief of the Mossad denied those arrested were Israeli spies. Ottoman Turkish media later published photos of the alleged agents.
The reports of the trial came amid signs of warming ties between Israel and Turkey after years of strained relations, and days after the presidents of the two countries spoke about a possible meeting.
