Just as the 14 individuals suspected of being involved with RedHack and Anonymous were presented before the Ankara Courthouse, RedHack hackers were busy breaching the official website of Turkeys Justice and Development Party (APK). On the Parliament section of akparti.org.tr, the hackers posted an apology on behalf of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. According to the message published by RedHack, Erdogan admits that the arrested people are innocent and calls the operation against the hacktivist group a charade. (English)
