PUK accused of assisting Turkey in Kidnapping  PKK leaders

Kurdish Media

London  - The Pro-PKK media and Kurdish  independent sources have accused the PUK, led by Jalal Talabani the  current Iraqi president, of attempting to kidnap two PKK leaders and  handing them over to the Turkish authorities.

The sources state that the PUK authorities, which is part of the KRG,  has organised a meeting for two of the PKK leaders, PKK co-president  Murad Karialan and Cemil Bayik, with the Turkish officials under pretext  of negotiating between two sides. However the PUK, the sources claim,  has also arranged for the Turkish intelligence services MIT to attack the  meeting and kidnap the PKK leaders.

At the same time, MIT with the help of the PUK brought a helicopter to  southern Kurdistan in pieces in order to be put together and to be used  in kidnapping the PKK leaders, as Turkey cannot fly over southern  Kurdistan’s territory.

Neither the KRG, led by Massuad Barzani, nor the PUK have commented on  the allegation. Recently the president of KRG Massuad Barzani stated  that even if he orders, the peshmerga forces would not open fire of the  PKK rebels.

KurdishMedia.com could not verify the story from its own independent sources.
