EU voices concern over Turkish graft scandal

The European Union has expressed concern over a deepening corruption scandal that has ensnared Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's allies and urged the country to handle the issue in a "transparent and impartial manner."

 

The statement came amid opposition criticism that the government was trying to stifle the corruption investigation by dismissing police officials. The government also changed regulations on how probes are conducted but that move was overturned by a Turkish high court. (AP)
