Скачать или смотреть Turkish Banker Guilty in US-Iran Sanctions Case

(3 Jan 2018) A Turkish banker accused of helping Iran evade U.S. sanctions has been convicted by a jury in New York after a trial that sowed distrust between the two nations.
The verdict came Wednesday at a trial where witnesses described corruption at the highest levels of Turkey's government, prompting its leaders to lash out at the U.S. prosecution.
The verdict pertained solely to Halkbank executive Mehmet Hakan Atilla, but its ramifications were likely to affect relations between Turkey and the U.S.
Atilla was convicted of five counts, including conspiracy. He was acquitted of one money-laundering charge.
Defense attorney Victor Rocco, speaking outside of the courthouse said he will appeal.
