Member Of Al- Qaida Captured In Connection With Istanbul Bombings
2004-02-02
Security officials have said that a member of the terrorist network of Al-Qaida was captured on January 29, 2004 in an operation about Istanbul bombings on November 15 and 20, 2003.
Reported this last week, got a name now.
Noting that 45 people were arrested by State Security Courts (DGMs) since the beginning of operations on November 15, 2003, the directorate said that a member of international terrorist network Al-Qaida was captured in Istanbul on January 29, 2004. He was identified as Baki Yigit.
Baki, Mr. Truncheon. Mr. Truncheon, Baki. Now that you’ve been introduced, perhaps you’d like to have a nice long talk.
The directorate said that 113 CDs, 20 floppy disks, 5 micro cassettes, 9 hard discs and a laptop were confiscated in the same operation.
Oooh, intel gold mine.
’’During his interrogation, the detainee said that he held talks with leader and military officials of the terrorist network abroad.
Sure like to know where "abroad" is. I’d guess Iran.
He said that they had given him directives for acts. The detainee said that he had received finance from the terrorist network for his efforts of planning training programs in military camps.’’
Another gold medal performance from the Turkish Truncheon Team.

Right off hand I'd say they were good on backing up their stuff. It's a good habit, I recommend to all.
