Shouldn't we be taking Bayrik's claim that this was the work of a lone "nutter" with several kilos of salt???

Indeed. This is the same newspaper that has been previously targeted by far-right scumbags who operate freely in the north and who have strong links to the Turkish military. Their goal is to silence opponents of the Turkish occupation of which Afrika is a leading voice.

Well, according to the CY Mail, this is the second time this alleged nutter has threatened Levent's life.

Good morning. Reading further along the article, which I did not bother translating, he is a nutter, who made previous attempts at this assassination attemps. My worry is that he will probably escape justice......again. I will check press reports soon to see if any further reports.

For you he's a nutter, but for others he's a hero (or almost one) of the revival of the Osmanli empire.

To Cypriots, most Cypriots he is no hero Kurupetos. Just ask VP.

VP does not participate in "such" topics Deniz.

I admire Levent, in fact I would admire anyone who has the guts to raise his voice even on the risk of losing his life.
Levent had about 1000 charges against him in "courts". Don't know how many of them are still on. His newspaper was forced to close down at least once. His life was threaded tens of times...

I can confirm that the Cyprob forums resident "nutter" was nowhere near the newspaper's offices. Two transexual prostitutes have backed up his alibi.

That might be true, but I was referring on Halil's bitch...meaning his dog.

Bit more on this story at ... http://www.cyprusnewsreport.com/?q=node/4317

inc this para...

"... Alleged shooter Mustafa Yalcin was found in a nearby bar after firing shots at Osman yesterday evening and was taken into custody. He is also suspected of shooting at Afrika editor Sener Levent on June 18th. Nobody was hurt in yesterday's incident, which is the latest in a series of threats and attacks on Turkish-Cypriot journalists..."

What an irony: the (almost) victim's name is Osman.
