Metris Prison[edit]

(

)

~~... that Metris Prison in Istanbul hosted Aziz Yıldırım, president of the multi–sport club Fenerbahçe S.K., for one year as detainee due to match-fixing allegations?~~

ALT1:... that 29 inmates escaped from Metris Prison in Istanbul through a self-built tunnel while the prison was still under military administration?

New enough and long enough. Foreign-language sources AGF, including hook refs. QPQ done. ALT1 reads better, but I wonder if you would also like to consider a (slightly misleading, and probably April Fool's type) hook about Hüseyin Yıldırım being incarcerated for only one day?

@Yoninah! Thank you for your recommendation. I have no objection against any other alt-hook. However, I see no relation of the article to April Fools' Day. As you guess such a hook on that day would be misleading only. Appreciate your final approval. --CeeGee 18:32, 19 March 2014 (UTC)

No problem. ALT1 is very good; I tweaked it a bit so it's clear what "it" is. Foreign-language hook ref AGF and cited inline. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 21:33, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
