Istanbul Bar Association President Saraç comments on detention

Saraç made a striking comment regarding the detention of lawyer Feyza Altun following a post she made on her social media account about Sharia.

Altun was detained after the Beykoz Chief Public Prosecutor's Office launched an ex officio investigation into her for the crime of "publicly inciting hatred and hostility or insulting," following the post she made on her account.

DETENTION COMMENT FROM ISTANBUL BAR ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT

Interpreting the process as the instrumentalization of law, Saraç included the following statements:

"The search of our colleague Attorney Feyza Altun's home and her detention constitute the use of protective measures regulated in the Criminal Procedure Code (CMK) for the purpose of punishment. It is the instrumentalization of law. This operation, which is clearly politically motivated, must be ended and our colleague must be released immediately."
