The court is to decide whether four of the five suspects detained in Bulgaria for complicity in the bombing in Istanbul should remain in custody indefinitely.
According to the Bulgarian authorities, the individuals apprehended rendered logistical support after the 13 November terrorist act in which 6 people were killed and 81 wounded. The four suspects in question are Amran Abdulrami from Syria, Petar Topal who has dual citizenship from Bulgaria and Moldova, as well as Ivan Kalak and Leonid Aksakal, both citizens of Moldova. The fifth person detained is a woman with health issues and the investigation is not demanding that she be remanded in custody permanently. Two charges are being brought against them all – of being part of an organized crime group for human trafficking and aiding and abetting acts of terrorism.
