Journalists being used as spies in Turkey, says Turkey's FM

Turkey’s Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said on Monday a trend had begun in Europe for intelligence agencies to use journalists as agents.

Commenting on the case of German-Turkish journalist Deniz Yucel, whom Turkey arrested in February on a charge of spreading terrorist propaganda, Cavusoglu said it was a matter for the courts, according to the report of Reuters.

“Our independent judiciary is carrying out the process. The judiciary will make the decision on Yucel,” Cavusoglu told a news conference with his German counterpart.
