ISTANBUL: Police in Istanbul have seized jewels and antiques worth an estimated $30 million from businesses in the city’s historic Grand Bazaar during an investigation into smuggled diamonds, Turkish media reported Wednesday. The operation was launched after 10 suspects were initially detained for smuggling gems into Turkiye, broadcaster CNN Turk and other outlets reported. Acting on orders from the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office, police raided 23 businesses in the 15th-century covered marketplace, arresting a further 40 people.
