Turkish journalist Cüneyt Ünal returned safely home Nov. 18 after three months in a Syrian prison, but his handover to a group of opposition party lawmakers by the Damascus regime has annoyed ruling party officials.
Ünal entered Turkey from Hatay’s Yayladağı border gate, which is close to the Syrian city of Latakia, with Republican People’s Party (CHP) lawmakers, and went to Ankara to meet his family. There is no information on the fate of Ünal’s colleague Bashar Fahmi, but CHP Hatay deputy Refik Eryılmaz said Syrian officials had promised they would find out what has happened to the reporter.
