Turkish Intelligence Agency (MİT) was aware of Ankara bombing: Turkish MP
As the Turkish government officials and Kurdish secessionists continue a
barrage of acrimonious accusations of conspiracy and treason against
each other following Ankara terror attack, a Turkish MP disclosed
confidential information on the mischievous role played by Turkish
Intelligence Agency, also known by its acronym, MİT.
Istanbul MP ErenErdem of Republican People's Party (CHP), in a press
conference, suggested the possibility of Turkish security apparatus
conniving with terror attack plotters, claiming that MİT has received
reports of probable terrorist attacks and knew that a guideline of
pre-emptive measures was already sent to related authorities, in
particular to Turkish Air Force commanders, adding, “the security report
dated January 20, 2016 —27 days ago before the terror attack— raising
the possibility of ISIS suicide attacks against Turkish military centres
but it was all to no avail. The blast site was dangerously in a short
distance from Turkish parliament.
Mr .Erdem sharply rebuke MİT for the utter incompetence to prevent the
recent deadly attack, asking, “why the adequate measures haven’t been
taken [by MİT] as soon as they received the threat reports?”, adding
that many in Turkey are in a state of complete shock as the much-vaunted
MİT made no efforts at all to foil the attack plot despite earlier
ominous warnings. “They might claim that there is no security weakness
in our country. Well, they should not deceive themselves. MİT is
virtually in a helpless situation where it cannot protect the nation,
for it concentrates much of its efforts on eavesdropping opposition
leaders. We are extremely worried,” Turkish media cited Mr. Erdem as
saying.
Erdem criticized MİT by casting aspersion on its mangers’ integrity by
asking, “If this heart-breaking tragedy is due to a shameful negligence
and inept handling of problem, thus dismissing the responsible officials
has become imperative but what troubles me so much is the possibility
of premediated intrigues.”
Some observers point their fingers at the ruling Justice and Development
Party (AKP) over the terrorist attack ripped through Ankara killing and
wounding scores of people. Earlier, a number of leaked security reports
blamed Erdoğan’s administration of masterminding multiple terrorist
attacks, namely those that rocked southern Hatay province.
It is apparent that the Prime Minister Davutoğlu seeks to muster public
support and reduce political pressures following his disastrous
mismanagements by concocting terrorism-related incidents.
