Speaking to Ekol TV presenter Candaş Tolga Işık, Justice Minister Tunç said regarding Ayşe Barım's health status, "The reports that Ayşe Barım suffered an aneurysm and was hospitalized are not true.
During a meeting with her lawyer, who is also her brother, in the late afternoon, she received some news and stated that she became very upset, causing her blood pressure to rise.
She called it private news and did not want to share it with anyone. Meanwhile, her blood pressure was measured and came out normal.
Prison staff still suggested calling an ambulance and transferring her to the hospital for further examination.
She said there was no need and that she wanted to rest in her room.
Her last blood pressure measurement at 22:00 was 14/7. Despite this, her health status is being monitored regularly," he said.
