Turkish police arrest 24 for wiretapping

Turkish security forces have arrested twenty-four people, including former football player Ridvan Dilmen, in an operation targeting a criminal organization that has allegedly engaged in wiretapping across four provinces.

"The detentions were made as part of planned operations frequently conducted by police," CNN Turk quoted Istanbul Police Chief Huseyin Capkin as saying on Tuesday.

Capkin added, “We cannot get into details now. You will learn about them in the coming days." The police chief also said that more arrests may be made.

The operation, based on almost two years of technical and physical investigations carried out by the Istanbul Police Department's Organized Crime Unit, was carried out in four provinces simultaneously.

The suspects are accused of illegally tapping the phones of well-known businesspeople as well as retired police officers.
