GERMAN prosecutors said yesterday they had charged a 58-year-old Turkish man with membership of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK).
The man — identified only as Bedrettin K, with his full surname not given — was charged with “membership of a foreign terrorist organisation.”
Prosecutors claimed the man, using the codename “Ali,” served as a regional PKK leader in Germany from 2012 until his arrest in August 2015, collecting donations and organising political events.
