Seven suspects, including former police chief, indicted for allegedly selling information to Mossad

In a joint operation conducted by the National Intelligence Organization (MIT) and Istanbul Police Department, seven suspects identified as selling information to the Israeli intelligence service Mossad were referred to the judiciary.

MIT and Istanbul police completed the relevant procedures for the suspects at the police headquarters. Following health checks, the suspects were referred to the courthouse.

Suspects leaked information to Mossad

Seven suspects were captured in the operation targeting suspects who allegedly sold information to Mossad. One of them was former police chief Hamza Turhan A., who appeared on morning TV programs. It was determined that Mossad had made contact with this individual through the agent codenamed “Victoria.”

MIT discovered that Turhan, who was said to be working as a private detective, had leaked information to Mossad in exchange for money. He had formed a team that included public officials to obtain information.

Investigators discovered Turhan received training from Mossad in Belgrade in 2019 for future missions. Initially used for basic tasks, he later transitioned to cryptocurrency payments and covert communication apps under Mossad’s direction, likely to avoid detection.

It was alleged that Turhan was involved in activities including threats, surveillance, and leaking information. He purportedly used tracking devices on vehicles to promptly relay the locations of his targets to Mossad. Additionally, there were accusations of harassment and threats directed toward these individuals.
