Russia accuses Turkish President Erdogan's son-in-law of being 'linked to Isis oil trade'

Russia has accused Turkish President Erdogan of running a “family business” after his son-in-law has allegedly been linked to smuggling Isis oil.

It has been claimed by an opposing MP that “there is a very high probability” that Berat Albayrak, who was appointed energy minister earlier thing month, is linked to the supply of oil by the terrorist group.

Eren Erdem who made the allegation is an MP from the opposing People’s Republican Party. He has said he is investigating an Arbil-based oil company, which he believes Mr Albayrak is linked to.

However, Anatoly Antonov, Russia’s deputy defence minister singled him and Bilal Erdogan, the president’s son, out at a press conference.

Mr Antonov said: “In the West, no one has asked questions about the fact that the Turkish president’s son heads one of the biggest energy companies, or that his son-in-law has been appointed energy minister. What a marvellous family business!” Full story...
