Seriously ill prisoners in Turkey are denied release. They are being left to die behind bars. The AKP regime’s political hatred is turning prison sentences into death sentences. Turkey must return to the rule of law — international bodies cannot stay silent. @ECHR @hrw

Democracy is eroding in Turkey under President Erdoğan. Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu is jailed on political charges, while CHP’s Özlem Çerçioğlu—facing criminal cases—was pressured to join the AKP. This is not justice. This is coercion. #Turkey #HumanRights @hrw @amnesty @UN_HRC @EU_Commission

The dictatorial government in Turkey uses the judiciary as a weapon. Mayors in provinces where the opposition party has won are arrested on charges of corruption. It is a real irony, because the biggest corruption is committed by the #akp. @ECHR_CEDH @hrw #istanbul #izmir #ankara

Opposition journalists are constantly detained in Türkiye for simple reasons. After the detention of journalist Fatih Altayli, now Journalist Irfan Degirmenci has been detained. @ECHR_CEDH @EU_Commission #turkeywatch @NewsEchr @echrnews @CommissionerHR @EP_HumanRights

#FatihAltayli, a well-known journalist in Turkey for many years, is arrested simply for expressing his opinions in a speech that upset #AKP Regime. Under #Erdogan's regime, anyone can be arrested at any time. There are no legal rules or logical consistency. @ECHR_CEDH @hrw #justice

Who is right — the powerful or the righteous? Those risking their lives to bring humanitarian aid to Gaza, or the Israeli officials arresting them for allegedly smuggling weapons? @amnesty @hrw @coe @ECHR_CEDH #HumanRights #Gaza #FreedomFlotilla

I just can't imagine anyone thinking it's okay to arrest a mother who has just given birth. There is no legal or moral justification for such cruelty. However, this happens quite a lot under Erdogan's Regime. @ECHR_CEDH @hrw #aliasaf #bbswill @Cemrebirand1 #justice #EidAladha

ECHR Grand Chamber session discussed how unfair the trials in Turkey are. You must prove that you don't know about or take part in the things you are accused of. More than 150,000 citizens have been found guilty of being part of a terrorist group. #NewsEchr #EU_Commission #15July

Don't be surprised! 🙄President of Turkey, R.T. Erdogan is trying every way to eliminate strong candidates in the next presidential election. Who is the next? 🤔 @ECHR_CEDH @EU_Commission #turkeywatch @NewsEchr @echrnews @CommissionerHR @EP_HumanRights

Many soldiers arrested after #July15 denied their statements signed under torture. Some were threatened with rape of their wives. Allegations are not investigated and rejected statements are still used. #ErdoganRegime's judiciary destroys lives. @ECHR_CEDH @hrw @EU_Commission

These children are in Turkish prisons. Their mothers have been convicted of being members of a so-called terrorist organisation because they had a bank account or were involved in charity work. This is #madness and #brutality. #freedom4kids @ECHR_CEDH @EU_Commission @happyeaster

When Erdoğan sees people as potential rivals, his only method of fighting is: Declaring a terrorist and putting in jail.

A distinguished soldier was arrested without evidence, subjected to torture, and sentenced to life imprisonment. UN demanded his immediate release. Justice must be urgently restored in Turkey. #ECHR_CEDH #NewsEchr #echrnews #CommissionerHR #EP_HumanRights #UdoBullmann #Gaza

In Turkey, HDK members, including artists and scholars, face unjust arrests for engaging in legal activities. These intellectuals and activists are wrongfully labeled as terrorists. #standforjustice @hrw @amnesty @EU_Commission @NewsEchr @echrnews @rglucks1_live

The #Turkishpolice declare people guilty or terrorists based on mass psychology and hate motivation. #Torture is one of the worst crimes against humanity. #ECHR_CEDH #EU_Commission #NewsEchr #echrnews @commissionerhr.bsky.social #EP_HumanRights @udobullmann.bsky.social #HNeumannMEP #rglucks1

Erdogan's Bloody Game The UN Human Rights Council confirmed that the July 15, 2016, coup was fake. General Öztürk, labeled as the coup leader, received 141 life sentences. The council urged his release and compensation for unfair trial. @ECHR_CEDH @echrnews @CommissionerHR @EP_HumanRights

According to the data from the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) as of January 31, 2025, Turkey ranks first by a wide margin in the number of applications (approximately 1 in 3), which indicates serious legal and human rights issues in the country. www.echr.coe.int/statistical-...

One last example to Arbitrary political arrests in Turkey. Medical astrologer #hilalsarac shared her views about #DevletBahceli's health. Immediately afterwards arrested for #insultingPresidentErdogan. Isn't that a brilliant #legallockpick to suppress opponents. #ECHR #HRW #Justice

The Erdoğan regime is intimidating its own citizens with random interrogations. Kids, mayors, politicians, and now actors and actresses are being called to testify. #halitergenc #berguezarkorel #dolunaysoysert #mehmetgunsur #ceydaduvenci #nejatisler #rızakocaoğlu #mervedizdar ...

They have been unjustly imprisoned for 8 years on charges of carrying out a coup against Erdogan. Give them their wings. Air Force Academy students Nagihan, Nimet and Sena are sentenced to life imprisonment. #AskeriÖğrencilereÖzgürlük #KursiyerTeğmenlereÖzgürlük #NationalGirlChildDay

The HRW-World Report 2025 once again stated that the Erdoğan regime is governing Turkey with unlawful and anti-democratic methods. Turkey’s allies shouldn’t ignore ‘democratic backsliding’ www.hrw.org/europe/centr...

Stop hate-motivated and discriminatory prison practices. The rule of law cannot be arbitrarily applied according to individuals or the wishes of politicians. #Prisons are not centers of revenge.

Al-Qaeda member wanted for terrorism became a general in Syria and was removed from the wanted terrorist list. General Öztürk, who opposed operations in Syria, was labeled a terrorist during the July 15 coup attempt and is in prison for life. @UNHumanRights #Syria

Turkish economy continues to deteriorate year by year. The minimum wage that will be valid in the new year has been determined as 22 thousand 104 lira with a 30 percent increase in Turkey. This increase is even below annual inflation.

Turkish Supreme Court has released ISIS terrorists, but ignored the rules of law for seriously ill prisoners and mothers with small children. Restore #ruleOfLaw and release innocent people not cold-blooded terrorists. #ECHR #Yargitay #unhcr #Yargitay

The inhumane act in Magdeburg is deeply heartbreaking. Destruction is easy, but building requires effort, love, and solidarity. Let love and tolerance prevail, not hatred. We mourn the loss of lives and wish a swift recovery to the injured. #Magdeburg

Shocking allegations from Turkey's Essen Consulate in Germany: A Turkish teacher claims he was beaten by police and threatened with having his throat cut. An alarming case drawing parallels to Jamal Khashoggi's murder. @abaerbock.diplo.de

Turkish prisons are overcrowded with poor sanitary conditions risking human lives. Wardens (not doctors) often decide whether prisoners could go to the hospital. #TheForensicMedicineInstitute makes release decisions based on political bias. #ECHR_CEDH #Mehmetgürler #Prison #hrw
