On Bağdat Avenue, the requested sentence has been determined for social media influencer Melisa Aydınalp, who walked in Suadiye on December 10, 2023, in a semi-nude state while carrying a banner that read, 'Freedom for breasts.'
Following the spread of the incident on social media, the Anatolian Chief Public Prosecutor's Office launched an investigation.

"I CONSTANTLY EXPERIENCE THE SAME THING"
In her statement, Aydınalp said, "I held a march to exercise my right to protest. Meanwhile, my friend filmed me. No part of my body was exposed. I did not engage in any indecent acts. Whenever I walk around in my normal clothes like this, I get detained. This situation also affects my education. I constantly experience the same thing."
Aydınalp was released with a travel ban and judicial control conditions.
