| Six charged with terrorist offences |
| 2002-12-15 |
| Six people are to appear in court charged with membership of a terrorist organisation. The three men and three women were arrested in London and Cheshire on Wednesday. They were charged by the Metropolitan Police under the Terrorism Act on Saturday. Five of those arrested are Turkish nationals, the sixth is British. The charges relate to being a member of a proscribed organisation and "facilitating the retention or control of terrorist property". "Hey, Mehmet! Will ya stash these explosives for me for a few days?" The organisation was named as DHKP-C, which is a Turkish left-wing group otherwise known as the Revolutionary People's Liberation Party. The three men are Rory O'Driscoll, 29, Allaatin Kalander, 38, both from Stoke Newington, north London, and Gurkan Gur, 39, from Hyde, Cheshire. The three women, all from north London, are Songul Ozgur, 26, Selver Kapan, 30, and Birten Kalayci, also 30. Ohfergawdsake! A bunch of cryptocommies! Two Turks, an O'Revolutionary, and some breeding stock, one of whom probably doubles as the brains of the outfit. |
