He pointed out that the Foreign and deputy prime minister Abdullah Gul posses needed information on the case. "In my view the evidences which so far have been handed in ( to Denmark ) are enough for closing down the station, but it is very clear, it seems there is a very open support given to the terrorist organisation, it can not be denied in any way. The terrorist Organisation's most highly placed leaders are talking at that TV channel, and it is evidently written on the front of the table, there are pictures there as well. It means, if Denmark wants to decide on this case there are enough evidence"
