Pope Benedict warned not to travel to Turkey
The man who shot Pope John Paul II in 1981 has warned Pope Benedict XVI, whose remarks enraged Muslims last week, not to visit this predominantly Muslim country in November, saying the pontiff's life could be in danger, the gunman's lawyer said.
"As a man who knows these things, I am saying that your life is in danger, don't come to Turkey. I can't welcome you because I'm in prison," lawyer Mustafa Demirbag quoted Mehmet Ali Agca as saying.
The lawyer said Agca made his statement during a meeting at the high-security Kartal prison in Istanbul on Monday. [Entire Story]
