Paris:
A young French journalist held on terror charges
in Turkey for more than seven weeks was headed to Paris today after
being freed, according to Reports.
“Loup Bureau is on board flight AF1391, which took off from Istanbul at 6:13 am (0313 GMT) and arrives in Paris at 8:40 am according to Air France,” Christophe Deloire, secretary general of the media freedom group, wrote on Twitter.
Washington, however, sees the group as the main force leading the fight against Islamic State jihadists on the ground in Syria.
Bureau—who had been held for 51 days—was taken directly to the departing
plane in Turkey to avoid contact with the media, Deloire said.
