Τέρμα στα τουρκικά ευφάνταστα παραμύθια περί βασανισμού μεταναστών από το Λιμενικό Σώμα

Το Αρχηγείο Λιμενικού Σώματος – Ελληνικής Ακτοφυλακής διαψεύδει κατηγορηματικά, την ανακοίνωση της Τουρκικής Ακτοφυλακής που αναπαράγεται καταρχήν σε τουρκικά μέσα ενημέρωσης και αναφέρεται σε φερόμενη εμπλοκή της Ελληνικής Ακτοφυλακής σε κακομεταχείριση μεταναστών που περισυνελέγησαν νεκροί εντός τουρκικών χωρικών υδάτων πλησίον της Σμύρνης.  

 

Οι εν λόγω ισχυρισμοί είναι παντελώς ανυπόστατοι. Είναι fake news που εντάσσονται στη συνεχή προσπάθεια της τουρκικής πλευράς να σπιλώσει την εικόνα της χώρας με εκστρατεία παραπληροφόρησης και προώθηση ψευδών ειδήσεων.
