Adele's 'Million Years Ago' faced by plagiarism accusations

One of Adele's new songs is in the centre of plagiarism claims.

The singer recently released her third album '25', with the record featuring the track 'Million Years Ago'.

However, some Turkish music fans say the tune has stolen parts from the late artist Ahmet Kaya.

They say Adele's song has copied his 1985 effort 'Acilara Tutunmak'.

The Kurdish musician's widow Gulten Kaya told Turkish newspaper that plagiarism was unlikely.

However, she said: "However, if she consciously did it, then it would be theft."

Adele's '25' has broken numerous chart and sales records across the world since its release.

It became the UK and the US's fastest selling record ever.
