Turkey: Demonstrators on trial, police unpunished | Amnesty International
“The Turkish authorities have been relentless
in their crackdown on protesters - be it police violence on the streets
or by prosecuting them through the courts. Meanwhile the police enjoy
near total impunity. The message is clear: peaceful demonstrations will
not be tolerated,” said Salil Shetty, Secretary General of Amnesty
International.
