Cypriot Flight Attendant Released, Has Left Turkey – Sources

A Cypriot flight attendant who was detained by Turkish authorities in connection with the crash of the Libyan Falcon aircraft in Ankara has been released and has already left Turkey, according to sources from the Republic of Cyprus. Nicosia was informed about the detention from the beginning. The information was initially revealed by the Turkish website T24, which reported that the flight attendant had been detained from the hotel where she was staying, following an initiative by the Turkish MIT. The flight attendant was a member of the crew that had flown the ill-fated jet to Turkey. However, according to the same source, the initial investigation did not yield any specific evidence against her. The case is under investigation and Turkish authorities have not made an official statement. The release of the flight attendant marks a significant step in the investigation into the causes of the aircraft crash, while questions remain about the circumstances of the detention and the flight attendant's role in the events.
