National Intelligence Organisation scandal in Turkey

An operation was launched on May 15 in Istanbul and Ankara as a part of the investigation into the halting of Syria-bound National Intelligence Organization (M?T) trucks in January 2014.

Four prosecutors and one commander, for whom arrest warrants were issued after their halting of Syria-bound National Intelligence Organization (M?T) trucks in Turkey's south last year, have been detained. 

The Tarsus 2nd High Criminal Court ordered the arrest of four prosecutors, along with a commander who ordered the Syria-bound trucks belonging to M?T to be stopped and searched. 

Four prosecutors and a former commander were arrested on May 6 in the investigation into the halting of Syria-bound National Intelligence Organization (M?T) trucks in January 2014, which led to a nationwide crisis and a series of detentions against top security personnel. 

The awareness was there. So was the ambition to make cyber security the country?s ?fifth force.? Events in a span of less than two years have shown that Turkey is still too far away from building reliable defenses against cyber threats.

A non-commissioned officer has been arrested in the southern Turkish province of Hatay for informing the gendarmerie about trucks belonging to the National Intelligence Organization (M?T), which were stopped and searched by soldiers two years ago.

Five public prosecutors involved in the stopping and searching of National Intelligence Organization (M?T) trucks in January 2013 have been removed from their duties by the Supreme Board of Judges and Prosecutors (HSYK), on the grounds of the "safety of investigations and not harming the judiciary's influence or reputation."
