Greek Government caves to Turkish Secert Services

Postby MGCN » Sat Jun 08, 2013 1:25 am

It looks like the Greek Secret Services' have again caved to Turkish Secret Services' demands to send back a person that the Turkish state wants.

Bulut Yayla, a Turkish archaeology student and left-wing activist, says he travelled to Greece in April this year to escape imprisonment and torture he endured under the government of Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Once in Athens he tried to seek asylum as a political refugee to escape an international arrest warrant issued against him after being accused of having links with an outlawed Marxist organisation.

On 30 May, Bulut, 26, left the restaurant where he worked, in the central Athens neighbourhood of Exarhia, to meet some friends He never made it. At around 9pm, witnesses say they saw five men beating him near the restaurant, forcing him into a car and driving off. Two days later, his family got a call from Turkish authorities, informing them he was in their custody, in a high-security prison. The head of Greek police later confirmed the car’s licence plates showed it was a police vehicle.

I guess the RoC will have to free itself as the Greece is clearly not willing or able to help in defeating Turkey.

We always knew we were all alone as Greece can't be trusted.

Greece as you know, has a history of betrayal. In 1999, Ocalan was in a Greek Embassy with the Greek Secret Service and then mysteriously ended up on the Turkish Midnight Express.

Look they can't be trusted. Luckily, the RoC is starting to build relationships and alliances with other more trustworthy, and serious countries like Israel.

Greece is a defeatist appeaser and an Ally of Turkey it seems.

Rather misleading topic title ...

when the Greek judiciary is involved they tend to acquit [Turkish political activists]. Turkish authorities wanted to stop this and resolve this – so they kidnapped him,”


Nevertheless, Greece should let Turkey collect ALL her illegal immigrants.

(Suddenly every illegal Turkish immigrant is going to call themselves a "political activist" :lol: )

Ocalan was no illegal immigrant, but was supposedly a good friend and ally to Greece against Turkey.

because of Greece, he is on the Midnight Express!

You need to get your facts straight and stop make sweeping statements based on your Greek-hatred.

I have dear.

This saga has claimed many Greek political scalps.

Fact is, it was at the very least, stupidity on a grand scale, and quite possibly, a Greek betrayal as stated by some Greek Political figures!

Do your research dear!
