The journalist/writer Zihni Çakır was detained at Pursaklar in Ankara for acquiring secret state documents. The directive for detention came from Zekeriya Öz, the İstanbul public prosecutor, who has been heading the Ergenekon case. According to the newspaper Vatan, it was claimed that a document belonging to a formation attached to PKK was found on Çakır.
Çakır is also wanted for the crime of “fraudulent bankruptcy. He is expected to be sent to İstanbul.
It is claimed that ‘Kod Adı Darbe, a book about Ergenekon, which was written by Çakır, includes secret documents, wire tab records, sketches and codes belonging to Ergenekon.
A “Target Card” and a “Supplement to the Target Card” are among the secret documents. It is said in the book that the tube-crossing that is described as a target in the book would be bombed since “it would cause panic and confusion.”
This book also includes a document claimed to be prepared by the National Intelligence Agency (MIT), which states that the former President of the Constitutional Court Yekta Güngör Özden is a CIA agent. According to the allegation, Özden was included among the “reliable agents” category by Colonel W. Bob, the former chief director responsible for Turkey. He was given the code “EC-7-97”
On the other hand, MİT denied the authenticity of the document about the Sabancı assassination found in the book, which the newspaper Taraf had carried to its front page as “Here is the MİT’s Report Of The Sabancı Assasination.” (NZ/GG/TB)
