AVRUPA KAMUOYUNA;
"Teror Örgutleri Sorumlularinin Avrupa'yi Mesken
Tutmalarina Artik Izin Vermeyin"
"Turkiye, Sizden Teroristlerin Iadesini Bekliyor"


Turkiye'de on binlerce insanin olumune ve yaralanmasina, milyonlarca dolar maddi hasara neden olan teror orgutlerinin lider ve tetikci kadrolarinin buyuk bir bolumu halen Avrupa Birligi ulkelerinde yasiyorlar.

11 Eylul 2001 tarihinde ABD'de yasanan insanlik disi terorist saldirilarin ardindan NATO'nun 5. maddesi kapsaminda harekete gecen Almanya, Ingiltere, Hollanda, Fransa, Belcika ve Yunanistan gibi Avrupa Birligi uyesi ulkelerin, demokratik yapilarini istismar eden teror orgutlerinin sorumlulari hakkinda ayni hassasiyeti gostermeleri bekleniyor.

INTERPOL'un basin-yayin organlarina yansiyan aciklamalarina gore, Turkiye'deki cesitli teror olaylarina karisan 214 orgut sorumlusu Avrupa ulkelerinde bariniyor. INTERPOL'un, 71'i hakkinda "difuzyon", 31'i hakkinda "dogrudan talep", 112'si hakkinda da "kirmizi bulten" yoluyla toplam 214 teroristi aradigi belirtiliyor.

Bugune dek, Avrupa ulkelerinde yakalanan bir cok terorist, yasalarda yer alan idam cezasi gerekce gosterilerek Turkiye'ye iade edilmezken, 2 Agustos 2002 tarihinde idam cezasinin yasa kapsamindan cikartilmasi Turkiye'nin bu konudaki beklentilerini artiran bir faktor olarak goruluyor.

Simdiye kadar Avrupa ulkelerinde tutuklanan, ancak cesitli nedenlerle Turkiye'ye iade edilmeyerek, sonradan serbest birakilan teroristlerin sayisi hicte az degildir.

Turkiye'de cok sayida masum insanin oldurulmesiyle sonuclanan silahli ve bombali saldiriya imzasini koyan teror orgutu DHKP/C'nin lideri Dursun Karatas, Fransa'da yakalandiktan sonra serbest birakilmistir. Halen Hollanda, Belcika ve Yunanistan'da barinarak, teror eylemleri icin talimat vermeyi surdurmektedir.

Isadami Özdemir Sabanci ve iki arkadasinin olumuyle sonuclanan saldiriyi gerceklestiren Ismail Akkol Yunanistan'da serbestce dolasirken, eylemin saniklarindan Fehriye Erdal Belcika'da hala yargilanmaktadir. Turkiye'nin iade taleplerine ise bugune kadar ciddi bir yanit verilmemistir.

Diger yandan, INTERPOL tarafindan aranan teror orgutu PKK-KADEK Baskanlik Konseyi uyesi Murat Karayilan Hollanda'da yakalanmis ve Turkiye tarafindan "iadesi" talep edilmistir. Ancak, bu talepte goz ardi edilmis ve Murat Karayilan'in Hollanda'dan kacmasina kayitsiz kalinmistir.

Yine, iade talebi bulunan teror orgutu PKK-KADEK'in Baskanlik Konseyi uyelerinden Riza Altun'a anlasilmaz bir sekilde Fransa tarafindan gecici oturma izni verilmekte ve Altun'un, Fransiz yetkililerince kendisine Fransa'dan cikarilmayacagi ve korunacagi yonunde guvence verildigine iliskin aciklamalar gazete sutunlarinda yer almaktadir (Hurriyet Gazetesi 7 Ekim 2001).

Teror orgutu PKK sorumlularindan Nuriye Kespir, 28 Eylul 2001 tarihinde Hollanda'ya yasa disi yollardan girerken yakalanmis, 25 Haziran 2002 tarihinde Amsterdam Mahkemesi'nde yapilan durusmasinda tahliye talebi kabul edilmemis, tutuklulugunun devamina karar verildigi aciklanmistir. Ancak, terorist Kespir'in de, Turkiye'ye iadesi talebinin sonucu suruncemede birakilmistir.

Laik -demokratik sistemi yikarak "Halifelik" esasina dayali seriat yonetimini amaclayan Islamci teror orgutu AFID (Kaplancilar Örgutu)'in lideri olan ve halen Almanya'da cezaevinde bulunan Metin Kaplan'in Turkiye'ye iadesi talebi, idam cezasi alma ihtimali bulundugundan daha once kabul gormemisti.

Verilen ornekler disinda PKK-KADEK, DHKP/C, TKP/ML, MLKP, Kaplancilar vb. teror orgutlerine mensup onlarca terorist, Avrupa Birligi ulkelerinde yasam ortami bulmaktadirlar.

Terorizme karsi duyarliligin ust noktalarda oldugu boylesi bir ortamda, ABD ve Avrupa Birligi'nin "teror orgutleri" listelerinde yer alan, Almanya, Fransa ve Ingiltere'de yasaklanan PKK-KADEK ve DHKP/C basta olmak uzere tum teror orgutlerinin sorumlularinin Avrupa ulkelerinde rahatca dolasmalarina, barinmalarina ve terorist eylemleri organize etmelerine izin verilmemesi, Turk kamuoyunun beklentisidir.

Terorizme prim verenlerin de, en az teroristler kadar suclu olduklarini bir kere daha hatirlatirken, terorizmle mucadelede basarinin, cifte standart uygulamadan, ayrimcilik yapmadan, teror orgutlerine karsi topyekun mucadeleyle mumkun olabilecegini vurgulamak istiyoruz.

Saygilarimizla

TO THE EUROPEAN PUBLIC OPINION;
"Do Not Let The Leaders Of Terrorist Organizations Take Shelter In Europe Anymore"
"Turkey Expects You To Extradite The Terrorists"

Most of the leaders and killers of terrorist organizations that murdered and wounded ten thousands of people in Turkey and caused millions of dollars material damage presently live in the countries of the European Union.

Members of the European Union such as Germany, Great Britain, The Netherlands, France, Belgium and Greece, got into action within the Article 5 of NATO following the inhuman terrorist attacks in the USA on September 11, 2001, are expected to be as much sensitive regarding the leaders of the terrorist organizations who have been exploiting their democratic structures.

According to the statements of INTERPOL that appeared on the media, 214 members of these organizations who were involved in terrorist acts in Turkey have taken shelter in European countries. INTERPOL has been hunting for 214 terrorists in total-71 through "diffusion", 31 through "direct demand" and 112 by means of "the red bulletin".

Until now, several terrorists who had been captured in European countries were not extradited to Turkey on the pretext that capital punishment existed in Turkish laws. The fact that death penalty was abolished on August 2, 2002 increased the expectations of Turkey in that regard.

The number of terrorists who were arrested in European countries and later released rather than being extradited to Turkey due to several reasons is considerable.

Dursun Karatas, the leader of the terrorist DHKP/C perpetrated a number of armed and bombing attacks that killed several innocent people in Turkey was released after he had been captured in France. He currently lives in The Netherlands, Belgium and Greece, and keeps on directing terrorist acts.

Ismail Akkol, one of the perpetrators of the attack that killed businessman Özdemir Sabanci and two colleagues, walks free in Greece, while Fehriye Erdal, one of the suspects of the attack, is being tried in Belgium. Both countries did not give a serious reply to the extradition demands of Turkey until today.

On the other hand, Murat Karayilan, a member of the PKK-KADEK's Chairmanship Council, who has been sought by INTERPOL, was captured in The Netherlands and Turkey demanded his "extradition". However, this demand was disregarded and Murat Karayilan was let free to escape from The Netherlands.

France unintelligibly provides temporary residence permit to Riza Altun, a member of the terrorist PKK-KADEK's Chairmanship Council, for whom a request of extradition has been issued. Altun's statements indicating that French authorities have given him assurance that he would not leave France and that he would be protected took part in newspapers (Hürriyet daily, October 7, 2001).

Nuriye Kespir, a member of the terrorist PKK, was captured on September 28, 2001 when she was trying to enter the Netherlands illegally. Her release demand was rejected during her trial on June 25, 2002 in the Court of Amsterdam and the court ordered the continuation of her detention. However, the result of the demand of extradition for terrorist Kespir to Turkey was left hanging in the air.

The extradition request for Metin Kaplan, the leader of the Islamist terrorist organization AFID (Kaplancilar Organization) aiming to replace the secular democratic system with a religious sharia regime based on a "Caliphate" state, was rejected due to the possibility of a death penalty.

Besides the given examples, dozens of terrorists belonging to the PKK-KADEK, DHKP/C, TKP/ML, MLKP, Kaplancilar and other terrorist organizations take shelter in the member countries of the European Union.

It is the expectation of Turkish public opinion that the leading members of all terrorist organizations, particularly the PKK-KADEK and the DHKP/C which were banned in Germany, France and Great Britain and were included in the list of "terrorist organizations" of the US and the EU, should not be granted the freedom of movement, shelter and perpetrating terrorist acts in European countries in an atmosphere where sensitivity towards terrorism is at its highest.

We would like to remind you once again that the ones who tolerate terrorism are as guilty as the terrorists. The success in the struggle against terrorism is only possible with a comprehensive fight against terrorist organizations without double standards and discrimination.

With all due respect.
