60 yaşında Erdoğan’a hakaret eden kişi serbest bırakıldı
A 66-year-old homeless Turkish man was detained on charges of insulting President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan after he appeared before the court claiming that his actions were aimed at obtaining food and shelter, as he stated that he has no place to stay and sleeps in garbage dumps. Despite his repeated attempts, he has not yet been imprisoned, but insulting the president is considered a crime punishable under Turkish law with a sentence of one to four years in prison. A legal provision that sanctions insulting the president is used, and the country has seen an increase in the use of this law since the shift to a presidential system in 2018, with approximately 83,000 cases related to these crimes opened since 2016.
