Turkey - arrests Cumhuriyet chairman over suspected "terrorist activities": euronews (in English)

Published on Nov 11, 2016
Turkish police have reportedly arrested Akin Atalay, chairman of the opposition daily Cumhuriyet.

He was detained on his arrival from Germany on Friday morning, according to the newspaper's website.

Last week, Turkish authorities detained nine other executives and journalists from the paper. Editor-in-chief, Murat Sambunju, was said to be among them.

The detentions - over the newspaper's alleged support for July's failed coup - have been described by one EU politician as crossing a red line.
