Ankara - Turkish Daily News

Quoting a recently captured former leader of the outlawed Kurdistan
Workers' Party (PKK), senior Turkish intelligences sources say that
there are considerable links between Germany and the separatist
organization and claim that German general prosecutor Kay Nehem, who
earlier said that the PKK is no longer a terrorist organization,
received $75,000 in bribes from the PKK.

The sources said that German politicians, intelligence and judiciary
members have had contacts with the PKK and Syrian government officials
in northern Iraq, Syria and Germany.

"I know that since 1989 at least seven German deputies travelled to
Damascus and the Bekaa Valley to meet PKK leader Abdullah Ocalan and
also met secretly with Syrian and Greek intelligence officials," the
terrorist, who was responsible for the European operations of the PKK,
is said to have alleged.

"As I hear from my friend Osman, Syria was coordinator among the
Greek, Syrian and German intelligence organizations. I personally
heard two German intelligence officials say that they contributed DM 6
million to the bank account of Nizamettin Togus who was responsible
for PKK financial affairs in Germany," intelligence sources quoted the
terrorist as having said.

"Germany supports the PKK because of its huge interests in the
Caucasus and is also using the separatist organization to put pressure
on Turkey. Bonn released leading PKK official Kani Yilmaz after
fearing that the PKK would carry out terrorist activities in Germany,"
sources said.

"Abdullah Ocalan, who bought a house in Koln, told me that some
Germans were sent to PKK units to fight against the Turkish military.
Ocalan told me that Germany is also ignoring the PKK efforts to
launder money," the terrorist said.

"Ocalan told us that he is planning to improve the PKK's effectiveness
within Europe and that they are doing their best to see this happen.
Furthermore, with this aim, the PKK bribed the German prosecutor," the
terrorist said.

Currently, a German citizen who was captured earlier in a Turkish
military operation against the PKK is being tried in a Turkish court
in the Southeast.
