ANKARA/ISTANBUL - A leaked audio recording of Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayip Erdogan and his son, allegedly discussing how to hide large sums of cash amid an ongoing graft probe, has sent shockwaves through the country, with many Turks taking to the streets to stage protests demanding Erdogan's resignation.

PROTESTS ACROSS TURKEY

Thousands of people took to the streets in 11 cities of Ankara, Istanbul, Izmir, Antalya, Antakya, Samsun, Trabzon, Eskisehir, Kocaeli, Bursa and Canakkale.

In Ankara, protesters shouted slogans, chanting "the government resigns", "thief Erdogan" in protest at the government. Police fired tear gas and water cannon to disperse the several hundred protesters.

In Istanbul the protests have been held in 10 different locations. The biggest crowd gathered in Istanbul's Asian district of Kadikoy.

Some 5,000 people shouted anti-government slogans as they marched toward the district center. Holding banners with slogans like "Where are the thieves," "You will answer to the people," and "Everywhere robbery, everywhere corruption," the anger on the street was visible.

In Istanbul, Bursa and Eskisehir riot police clashed with the protesters.

In Bursa, police tried to prevent the crowd from marching toward the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) Headquarters.

In Eskisehir police dispersed protesters by firing water cannons and rubber bullets and in Kocaeli, protesters threw eggs at the AKP's headquarters breaking the windows of the building.

PM DENIES LEAKED RECORDING

The audio recordings disclosed on the internet on late Monday suggesting the Turkish prime minister ordering his son Bilal Erdogan to dispose vast amount of cash just after a graft probe launched on December 17 when police raided sons of three ministers, local media reported.

Interior Minister Muammer Guler, Economy Minister Zafer Caglayan, and Environment Minister Erdogan Bayraktar had to resign in December when their sons were accused of being involved in corruption.

Erdogan has rejected the allegations, labeling the leaked recordings as "fake".

The leaked recording is "vile attack" that won't go unpunished, he said on Tuesday addressing his lawmakers at a parliament session.

He described the recordings as part of "efforts to overthrow the government", saying, "this coup attempt will not remain unanswered".

The government would bring legal action against these wiretapping activities, the prime minister stressed.

OPPOSITION URGES PM'S RESIGNATION

Turkish opposition parties have asked the prime minister to resign and called on judicial bodies to investigate into the allegations of corruption.

The leader of the main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP), Kemal Kilicdaroglu, claimed that the leaked phone conversation is genuine, contending his party has examined the recording along with voice experts.

On the other hand, Erdogan's ruling AKP party said that it had established a commission to examine the voice tape and the party would take action on the commission's findings.

Pro-Kurdish Peace and Democracy Party (BDP) Chairman Selahattin Demirtas, for his part, called on the prime minister to allow technical analysis on the audio tape.

乌克兰还没闹完,土耳其又开始了?
新华网伊斯坦布尔2月25日电(记者陈铭)土耳其总理埃尔多安疑似涉腐录音24日晚曝光后,土耳其25日晚爆发全国性抗议游行,要求政府下台。

  在土耳其最大城市伊斯坦布尔、首都安卡拉、爱琴海沿岸城市伊兹密尔、地中海城市安塔利亚等11个城市,数千名抗议者走上街头并高呼反政府口号。警方对抗议者使用了催泪瓦斯、橡皮子弹和高压水枪,抗议者则用鞭炮和石块还击,有的人还在街道设置路障。

  土耳其媒体24日晚爆料,网上流传着埃尔多安打电话要其儿子立即转移10亿美元的窃听录音,通话日期为去年12月17日,当天正值土耳其3名内阁部长的儿子因卷入大规模腐败而被捕。

  埃尔多安25日对此予以否认,指责窃听录音是“假的”。土耳其反对党领导人则认为这个录音是真的,因此要求现政府下台。

  据土耳其亲政府媒体报道,一些反政府检察官非法窃听了包括政府部长和商界精英在内的数千名“政要名流”。
