Turkish School Says No Links to Terrorism

[geovalin]

In response to statements made by the Turkish ambassador to Cambodia on Monday, officials from the Zaman International School (ZIS) yesterday denied any links with terrorist organizations, saying the ambassador’s claims were unfounded and lacked evidence. School officials said they wanted to sue the ambassador for defamation.

In an interview with Khmer Times yesterday at his office in the iCON Professional Building in Phnom Penh, Hakan Atasever, the director of public relations for Zaman, said Zaman was a private local company. As a result, it falls under Cambodian laws and regulations. If Cambodian authorities find his company is guilty of having links with a terrorist organization, then his company must face charges according to the law. Otherwise, his company has the full right to seek legal action against any accusations that are defamatory.

“We are inviting H.E. Ambassador to show the evidence, any court decision and whatever proof he has to blame us, to the public and the authorities. We would like to announce that we will seek our legal rights as this accusation is an attempt to defame our company,” said Mr. Atasever. When asked why the schools had the same name as the daily Zaman newspaper in Turkey, Mr. Atasever said the school was founded in 1997 by Atilla Yusuf Guleker, a former journalist who worked at that paper, the largest opposition newspaper in Turkey before the government seized control in March this year.
