In a meeting with Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul, Joost Lagendijk, the co-chairman of the Turkey Delegation from the EU Parliament, said that the removal of the Van Prosecutor Ferhat Sarikaya from his posting following the infamous Semdinli accusations against a top general in the Turkish army seemed to the EU like "something was being covered up."
Speaking further, Lagendijk said "The removal of Sarikaya sends the wrong message," expressing also that there was a general perception that "the matter (of accusations against a top-ranked military member)could not be touched" by anyone in Turkey.
