Turkey's justice minister said Thursday that authorities will review the prison release of the Turkish gunman who shot Pope John Paul in 1981. Justice Minister Cemil Cicek ordered a review of the complicated case, saying he wanted to make sure that there were no errors. Mehmet Ali Agca was released from prison Thursday after serving more than 25 years in Italy and Turkey for the plot against the pontiff and the slaying of a Turkish journalist.
