The shootings of three Kurdish women activists in Paris apparently aiming to disrupt the on-going peace process in Turkey, has bored hallmarks of the parallel network, nested within the state.

Ömer Güney, believed to have killed three Kurdish female activists in Paris, allegedly met with Osman Hilmi Özdil, thought to be the Imam (priest) loyal to the Gulen-led network in the police organisation, for seven times from 2010 to 2013 before the fatal shooting.

According to a recent claim, the sound in the conversation, wiretapped and circulated in order to pin the crime on the Turkish National Intelligence Agency, MIT, belongs to the network''s Imam, dubbed by Ömer Kozanli.

Acting on a tip-off, the intelligence service and the police investigated his serial of conversations in person. However the parallel structure, nested within the police organisation, has erased almost all traces of all his meetings which two of them took is believed to take place in Germany while the two others in the capital Ankara.

Another claim said that Ömer Güney, thought to leak confidential information to the German-based part of the Gulen-led network, increased frequency of his visits in Ankara after launching the peace process to stop the 30-year-old bloody conflict in predominantly Kurdish region.

The suspect met with Kozanli for five times, once in Istanbul. The network''s Imam Kozanli is believed to have encouraged him to get involved in this murder saying ''you will be the second Agca.''

Agca is a Turkish assassin who murdered left-wing journalist Abdi Ipekçi in 1979 and later shot and wounded Pope John Paul II in 1981 following his escaping from the prison in Turkey. After serving 19 years of imprisonment in Italy, he was deported to Turkey, where he served a 10-year sentence until his release in 2010.

After the apparent assassinations in Paris, the parallel structure urged to kill a deputy in the delegation of the pro-Kurdish Peace and Democracy Party, BDP, who held diplomatic talks in Paris just after the shooting. However, Güney accepted to greet the visiting Kurdish delegation in Paris while refusing to process another murder despite all threats against him.

The parallel structure had been due in to assassinate Sabri Ok, a leading leader of Kurdistan Workers Party, PKK, in northern Iraq, if the murders in Paris failed to achieve its aim in another attempt to cripple the peace process seriously in Turkey.
