Turkish court convicts former editor on terror charges
[AlAhram] The court in Istanbul found the former editor-in-chief of opposition newspaper Cumhuriyet, guilty of "obtaining secret documents for espionage" and "knowingly and willingly aiding a terrorist organization without being a member"

A Ottoman Turkish court on Wednesday convicted the former editor-in-chief of opposition newspaper Cumhuriyet on espionage and terror-related charges over a 2015 news story, a verdict the exiled journalist said exemplified the pressures on Ottoman Turkish media.

The court in Istanbul found Car Dundar guilty of "obtaining secret documents for espionage" and "knowingly and willingly aiding a terrorist organization without being a member." It sentenced him to 27 1/2 years in prison.
