"Second Turkish-speaking group faces defeat in Greece
AFP: 1/31/2005
ATHENS, Jan 31 (AFP) - Greece's Supreme Court is expected to deny a licence to a women's group in northeastern Greece because it wants to describe itself as Turkish, a court source said Monday.
It is the second Supreme Court case in a month in which a group from northeastern Greece's 100,000-strong Turkish-speaking Muslim community has sought to describe itself in ethnic rather than religious terms.
The court is likely to follow the recommendation of the public prosecutor in Greece's highest civilian court Dimitris Kyritsakis and rule against the proposed Cultural Association of Turkish Women of Rodopi Prefecture. "
