Description | ANKARA, Turkey — Two more top Turkish opposition politicians resigned Tuesday — a month before the country’s general election — over secretly filmed tapes posted on the Internet that reportedly showed them having extramarital affairs.
The resignations of Bulent Didinmez and Ihsan Barutcu raised to four the number of far-right Nationalist Action Party politicians forced to withdraw from the June 12 elections. Two other party politicians resigned last month after similar sex tapes, apparently filmed with hidden cameras, hit the Internet. |
