The Hanefi Avcı affair: a dramatic detective story (2)

Faruk Mercan

Sarp Kuray, a former naval officer accused of having founded the 16 Haziran (or June 16) terrorist organization, says: “...The people who staged those attacks without my orders are freely walking around outside.

I, on the other hand, was sentenced to life in jail as the only convict…I myself am clueless about how the organization was able to gather so much intelligence.”

The meaning of these words is clear as daylight. Sarp Kuray is implying that control of the 16 Haziran organization was taken out of his hands by secret intelligence units within the state.
