Suspected UAE spy 'kills himself in Turkish prison'
29 April 2019
One of two men detained two weeks ago by Turkey on suspicion of spying for the United Arab Emirates has killed himself in prison, prosecutors say.
The suspect, identified as Zaki Hasan, was found hanged in his cell in Silivri prison, west of Istanbul, on Sunday.
He allegedly confessed during interrogation that he and the other suspect had spied on Arab dissidents.
Turkish officials said they were also probing possible links to the murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
