    Turkish Terrorist Warned Pope Can Pay with Life for Visiting Istanbul

    YEREVAN (YERKIR) - Terrorist Mehmet Ali Agca, who attempted the life
    of Pope John Paul II in 1981, called on Pope Benedict XVI to cancel the
    scheduled visit to Turkey. Agca assured the Pope's life is in jeopardy.

    Agca, who is serving his sentence for a murder did not mention the
    source of danger. The letter received by La Republica contains vague
    hints in the activities of "special services". The terrorist offered
    the Pope to resign and "return to the homeland and live in peace."

    After the attempt at John Paul II, who was gravely wounded, Agca was
    convicted to life sentence. After the Pontiff's death he was pardoned
    and extradited to Turkey, where he was later arrested for other crimes,
    reports PanARMENIAN.Net.
