Police authorities intensified its efforts to take a closer eye on the activities of RedHack - a hacker group from Turkey.
According to an article by Abdurrahman Şimşek from Sabah newspaper, the police report identified RedHack as a “cyber terrorist organization”.
The article went on to say that Muammer Aktaş, a prosecutor who worked on Ergenekon case, will be in charge of the investigation and charge the detected IP address holders with “being a cyber terrorist organization member”.
The police report allegedly accused RedHack of encouraging public to commit crimes via twitter during Gezi Resistance departing from the following tweet messages:
June 14: "By 2 pm today, let’s take the squares across the country”, "As we intensify on the issues, you announce the emergency needs”, "Please write on resistance news tag”, "Resistance continues even on a greater scale”, "Immediate calls on resistance news meeting”, "Let’s follow up with resistance tag”.
June 15: "We are marching from our heart for a fair and equal world with more freedoms and no exploitation or classes. Let them stop if they are brave”, “They are providing free raincoats, shuttle service, guidance or food to their meetings. Are you going to remain silent when they say TOMA, tear gas and batton to us?”, "Gazi, Sarıgazi, Okmeydanı, Nurtepe, Çağlayan, 1 Mayıs, Gülsuyu. Your home, your mother, your brother are waiting for you".
“Killing 5 and injuring 10,000, police calls us terrorist”
RedHack protested the alleged police report with “cyber terrorist organization” charges with a hashtag “#RedHackisNotTerrorist” on twitter.
Some of RedHack’s tweets unfolded as follows:
