Turkey Seeking Four-Year Prison Sentence for Enes Kanter

Prosecutors are seeking more than four years in prison for New York Knicks’ player Enes Kanter. Earlier in May, Kanter posted several tweets when he was detained at a Romanian airport. One included saying that the Turkey’s president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is the “Hitler of our century”. The six year NBA veteran’s passport was cancelled and wasn’t able to return to American until U.S officials stepped in. Updates on this story should be available soon.
