DJK, U.S. Diplomat Arrested In Turkey For Forging Passport by Islie(op): 1:51pm On Dec 22, 2021
Security footage showed the two meeting at Istanbul Airport, changing outfits and exchanging documents, Anadolu said.

Turkish authorities arrested an American diplomat working at the U.S. consulate in Beirut for helping a Syrian national fly to Germany on a fake diplomatic passport.

The state media reports, citing the police on Wednesday, said the diplomat, identified by the initials DJK was accused of “forgery of official documents’’ and trying to help the Syrian national leave Turkey but was arrested in Istanbul.

Anadolu said police detained the two suspects on Nov. 11 and found 10,000 dollars in an envelope and a forged diplomatic passport on the U.S. diplomat.

The diplomat is now in jail while the Syrian national was released.

Meanwhile, it is not clear when the U.S diplomat would appear in court.

The U.S. missions in Turkey and Lebanon were not immediately available for comment.

Security footage showed the two meeting at Istanbul Airport, changing outfits and exchanging documents, Anadolu said.

The two men were later stopped by airport police before the plane’s departure and detained, closed-circuit TV footage shared by private news agency Demiroren shows.

America has been reduced to almost nothing under forbidden administration. Did anything like this happen during Trump without consequences? America is like Nigeria now but on a different and higher level.

You're yapping nonsense without caring who is in the wrong. Are Americans above the laws of their host countries?

Diplomats are supposed to be reported to their country, not arrested.

He's lucky it wasnt Russia or Iran. IS has very cordial diplomatic relations with Turkey so this isn't gonna ruffle too many feathers.

Had this happened in the other two countries mentioned above, they would have milked the situation to it's very last drop!

Are you sure diplomats can be arrested? What about diplomatic immunity.

Diplomats are not bound by the laws of their host nation, the best you can do is deport such diplomat.
