Not again... Mehmet Ali Agca was returned to prison after a higher court eliminated the decision for his release. Not that I really care about the fate of this man, but I was amused by the total chaos in the Turkish justice area. What a mess... Reeeally impressing! And these are supposed to join the EU!?

Pope gunman returns to prison

ANKARA, Turkey (CNN) -- The man who shot Pope John Paul II returned to prison Friday, after an appeals court ruled that he should serve more time for the killing of a Turkish journalist and other crimes.

Mehmet Ali Agca did not resist arrest hours earlier when police knocked on his Istanbul apartment door following the court's ruling.

"I was waiting for you," he told the officers, according to private NTV television.

He was driven to Kartal prison, the same Istanbul lockup that he was released from eight days ago.

The panel of appeals court judges overturned a lower court's ruling that set Agca free on January 12. He had served 19 years in an Italian prison for the 1981 attack on the pope and then another 5 1/2 years of a 10-year sentence in Turkey for murdering Turkish journalist Abdi Ipekci in 1979.
