Evidence of wiretapping Turkish PM surfaces
Evidences of illegally wiretapping Turkish Prime Minister has surfaced, says a probe report
Allegations over illegally wiretapping Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan and his inner circle under fake identities have been proven by documents in the case file of the so-called Iran-linked terrorist organisation, Selam Tevhid, according to Daily Sabah.
Erdogan''s phone conversations with the Somalian and Palestinian leaders have been illegally wiretapped and recorded.
The Turkish premier''s conversation, which he had with Somalian President Hasan Sheikh Mahmoud at 15:59 on 26 November 2013, has been tapped under ID 2461965623 while the conversation, dated 28 November 2013, with Palestinian President Mahmud Abbas, has been tapped under ID 2467145057. The latter includes delicate information about Turkey''s policy on Gaza.
Officers, arrested for espionage and wiretapping, have also targetted Turkey''s master spy Hakan Fidan''s phone conversations, at the time when he was undersecretary of National Intelligence, or MIT. Fidan has been illegally listened to through his own phone under the identities Hakan and Emin respectively. His conversations had contained much classified information.
The probe into the so-called terror organisation has also documented that the same two judges have issued tapping orders each time.
The judge Süleyman Karaçöl has also previously ruled for the confiscation of properties of businessmen closely linked with Erdogan in the December 25 raid. Another judge, Menekse Uyar, has leapt into the national spotlight concerning the December 25 raid, because she had signed an order although another judge was on duty that day.
The 115-page court record said the suspects conducted an investigation into an alleged Iran-linked terrorist organisation, Selam Tevhid, as a pretence to wiretap and record the phone conversations of the Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the intelligence chief Hakan Fidan, ministers and key officials. The officers, arrested over espionage, have misled the courts that issued tapping orders by forging official documents.
