"Mehmet Kopal, who was wanted at the national level for 'being a member of the PKK armed terrorist organization,' was brought from France to Türkiye on April 9, following the coordinated efforts of the EGM's Interpol-Europol Department, Counterterrorism Department, Intelligence Department and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to secure a deportation decision," read the statement issued by the EGM.
