Police officers search if any bugs installed in the phones, linked with the authority's switchboard
Anti-smuggling and Organized Crime forces in Bursa on Wednesday swooped on the Provincial Directorate of the Social Security Institution, or SGK, acting on a tip-off that some information, recorded in the switchboard, had been transferred somewhere else after being wiretapped illegally.
Two computers, some official documents and all call recordings were confiscated during the operation. Police have taken the images of the computers, which were linked to the switchboard, to search for anything that could uphold the claims. The office's employees have not been taken under police custody.
“This is actually a retroactive claim. The police search will clarify if any information has been sent somewhere else,” said Ercan Karaca, the Provincial Head of SGK, speaking to the reporters after the operation.
The government authority in the province of Bursa will file a criminal complaint against those who made the tip-off, if the investigation turns out to be a hoax.
