Ömer Güney, culprit of the murder of three Kurdish woman revolutionaries, will be put on trial in Paris Special Court of Serious Crimes. The investigation points at the Turkish intelligence agency involvement in the murders.

After the completion of the investigation on the murder of PKK founding member Sakine Cansız, KNK Paris Representative Fidan Doğan and youth movement member Leyla Şaylemez on January 9, 2013 in Paris, the case has been sent to the court.

According to the French news agency AFP, Ömer Güney will be put on trial in Paris Special Court of Serious Crimes. Güney is accused of murder in relation with a terrorist organization, and the date of the trial has not yet been clarified. Paris Special Court of Serious Crimes hears cases on crimes of terror, and the current investigation points at the Turkish intelligence agency MİT’s preparation and provocation in the massacre. However, officials are not able to identify whether or not Turkish policy makers ordered the massacre.

Turkish officials refused to cooperate with investigators and did not share the information MİT had on the massacre. The French government only publicized a few documents that had already been known by the public, and has been hiding the information it has on Ömer Güney. Investigators note that Güney was an MİT agent who infiltrated into the Kurdish movement for espionage and assassinations. French prosecutor Jeanne Duyé decided to close the case in May, 2015, two years after the massacre.

A document on the massacre points at arrangements in Ankara, and this document helped further the investigation. On January 12, 2014, 3 days after the first year anniversary of the massacre, the shooter was heard in a voice recording leaked online as he spoke to two people from the Turkish intelligence on assassination plans. Two days after this recording’s dissemination, the written document instructing the shooter to assassinate Sakine Cansız became public. This document carried the signatures of MİT Branch manager O. Yüret, Department manager U. K. Ayık, Vice president S. Asal and President H. Özcan.

The document was originally issued on November 18, 2012, and emphasized that 6 thousand Euros were paid for the massacre.
