A top Turkish court has suspended a privatisation tender for Izmir port, won by a consortium of Hong Kong's Hutchison and Global Investment Holding, the union involved in the case said on Thursday. Metin Bayyar, lawyer for the Liman-Is union which had appealed for last year's tender to be cancelled, told Reuters the court had suspended the deal, not cancelled it as local media had reported earlier."
