  TURKEY BIRD FLU UNDER CONTROL

The World Health Organization reported Tuesday that all cases of human avian in Turkey have come from infected birds.
At least 15 cases of the disease have been identified in the country with two deaths. These are the first known human cases outside of China and Southeast Asia.
WHO said that the human victims all appear to have been infected through close contact with infected birds. The most recent case involves a woman who lives in a province with no reported cases of avian influenza but with outbreaks nearby.
Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said at a news conference Tuesday that he believes the disease is under control, the BBC reported. He said that none of the remaining 13 cases in humans are "at an advanced stage."
The Agriculture Ministry reported Tuesday that 306,000 birds have been killed in 15 provinces.

POPE'S WOULD-BE-ASSASSIN RELEASED FROM PRISON

Mehmet Ali Agca, the Turkish man who attempted to assassinate Pope John Paul II in 1981 was released from prison on Thursday after serving almost 25 years behind bars.
Agca, 48, did not say anything to a huge scrum of local and international reporters as he left Istanbul's Kartal Prison. He was immediately escorted by police to a military recruitment office.
Agca evaded compulsory military service in his youth but it is not clear whether he will have to complete his service now due to both his age - the military normally only takes recruits up to the age of 40 - and his mental state after spending so many years behind bars.
The man who shot the late pope in 1981 spent 19 years in prison in Italy before being extradited to Turkey in 2000 after being pardoned by Italian President Carlo Azeglio Ciampi. Upon arrival in Turkey he was immediately imprisoned for the 1979 murder of Abdi Ipekci, editor of Milliyet newspaper.
His release on Thursday was ordered due to new Turkish laws which counted the time spent in Italian jails towards the 25-year sentence on the Ipekci murder conviction.
Ipekci's family attempted to stop his release but a court on Wednesday evening refused to intervene.
There have been warnings that Agca's life could be in danger from those who may have helped him in the 1981 assassination attempt.
"(Once free) he will need to be extremely mindful of his own safety," retired Italian judge Fernando Imposimato told the Rome- based daily Il Messaggero earlier this week. "All of his known accomplices are either dead or have disappeared for good."
Agca was only 23 years old at the time of the attempted assassination and the motive for the attack remains shrouded in mystery.
Imposimato believes Agca, a professional killer, was hired by Bulgarian agents on behalf of the KGB in a plot to eliminate one of the most authoritative critics of communism in Europe.
The "KGB theory" has never been proven in court and Agca has helped muddy the waters by repeatedly changing his version of events. But Imposimato is convinced that Agca's former accomplices may now seek to silence him for good.
