"Dutch authorities release dozens of PKK militants
Dutch authorities have released all but three of 39 suspected PKK militants detained at an alleged terrorist training camp last year, prosecutors said Friday.

The suspects were believed to have been preparing attacks against Turkey and had been charged with membership in a terrorist organization.

Prosecution spokesman Wim de Bruin said a court ordered most of the suspects released 'because in a number of cases it could not be proven that they had committed a crime.' "
