ANKARA: Turkish police on Tuesday staged a major swoop on the Ankara-based offices of a media group critical of Tayyip Erdogan, a day after two British reporters were jailed on hugely controversial terror charges.
The raids on Koza-Ipek Media sparked fresh concern about deteriorating press freedoms on Turkey.
The swoop came a day after a court in Turkey’s Kurdish-dominated southeast ordered two British journalists working for US-based Vice News to be remanded in custody on “terror charges”.
Masked police broke into and searched a number of offices belonging to Koza-Ipek Media, the Dogan news agency reported.
