Turkish Journalist Sentenced To 3 Years Over Tweet

The Turkish court pronounced a Cumhuriyet opposition journalist on a three-year prison sentence Tuesday following a prosecution for spreading terrorist propaganda through a tweet he briefly announced in May, the state media said.  The editor of the newspaper, Oguz Guven, is accused of discrediting Ankara's fight against US Fethullah Gulen's fans, who the government last year orchestrated an attempt to occupy.  The twelfth was sent to the plaintiff who was killed in a traffic accident with the phrase "hiding the truck".   Cumhuriyet, a long column of secularists, says the tweet has been replaced within a minute by one who says the prosecutor "has died terribly in an accident in a truck." The dying prosecutor prepared an indictment against Gulen's network. The clergy deny any involvement in an attempted occupation.  The Anadolu state agency said Guven was sentenced to three years and a month in jail. He was detained in custody in May, but was released into custody in June.
