an challenge as prime minister and acton president has asked the company's parliamentary speaker to nominate a new prime minister. request comes off, the protesters stole the prime minister's office, and off the president will to buy a raj, a park. so fled the country just hours before he was due to resign. as it for me on the new seemed don't go away up next year on to w, the documentary political prisoners in our, the once turkey on got o f. as in boy in brent golf, we'll be here with the world update. well news update at the top of the allen, texas. ah, what interest? the global economy. our portfolio d w business beyond here the closer look at the project,

our mission. to analyze the fight for market dominance, kit is still the head with d w. business beyond. ah, ah, be destroyed, not ideal damina jam. mashaila told lou. dennis you jell. lisa, some of the well known german political prisoners in turkey, along with many other germans. they have been targeted by the turkish judiciary and the turkish president. although such an agent of terror, hodge who claims to be a journalist that's who they want from me. to this day several german saw held in turkish custody. all prohibited from leaving the country. many for political reasons. victims of a president persecutes his opponents without mercy. ready ah

ah this is the story of 3 of those prisoners, 3 women who were held in turkey for years. what did they go through, and how did it change their lives? they are the journalist mashaila toller, arrested in his dunbar in april 2017 ish galvis. alas, i think it was all politically motivated and decided on a political level. everything i experienced makes me angry, matches of it, and the german kurdish thing, a hose on china jailed in adina july 2018 book took electrical all up. there is no little of lo and turkey, so all decisions are made behind closed doors. la copa, archuleta and her daughter,

the social worker, girl di lan, earth arrested in istanbul may 2019th a camel. i mention how can you do something like this to a person to simply stripped them of 2 years of their life financial austin, being dick had the it, all 3 were accused of membership and terrorist organizations, or distribution of terrorists propaganda. they were being held in a country where judges hand down political sentences in line with the president's will and his fight to silence. critics, even in germany, how did it come to this? ah, it all began on the night of july, the 15th 2016. a part of the military attempted a qu against the regime of president reggie type ada one. the 2 failed and there

was several casualties. edwin blamed the attempt on his political opponent, the islamic preacher, fed to local land with us. he vowed a bitter revenge that we will wipe out this virus that is spread throughout all state institutions. a purge began immediately and continues to this day, tens of thousands of citizens, soldiers, and teachers, as well as prosecutors. and judges said to be close to glen, were arrested or dismissed and replaced by inexperienced officials, loyal to the government. the diplomat martin at mann was the german ambassador to turkey at the time of the failed qu, most of turk, his german political prisoners,

were detained during his posting. and german turkish relations were at a low point is in schism for there is an overarching political atmosphere in which judges or prosecutors believe they have to act a certain way. it's one aspect of the politicization of the system. the police, easy on to sustained, in some cases, detained. foreigners have been openly used as political hostages. one example is the u. s. pastor andrew brunson. other one would like to exchange him for another clergyman that trula glenn, who he sees as the mastermind of the co attempt glen, now lives in exile in the united states. bellevue survey. bill? yes. have you yet, shivered. you americans also have a pre sure of your own,

give us our preacher, and you will get yours. papa's observer, tunica hadn't knocked him there. president is actually on golf game, not. but after that statement by the president, cynic spoke of political prisoners as human bargaining chips, namely, a pencil on the person is arrested to be used and political extortion liter a person. so could an aunt. and there certainly have been such cases regardless of not only americans, but also french, british and germans have been detained. the most prominent is dennis huge. l. a german journalist of the newspaper, devout i what she, she hickok on and this person all who was a representative of the p k. k. a and a german agent. all was hiding in the consulate for a whole month. be the whole time we told them, turn him over to us if he said that we can bring him to justice for whatever reason

they did for and out judiciary did what was necessary and arrested him. they are good. good of you have to look, look to cindy, there's no way he's going to go free as long as i am in office kosler was, you jour also such a human bargaining chap, according to martin edmond, no price was ever mentioned for you jell, all the others yet they were pawns on the turkish president political transport, his aim to rid himself of opponents and appear as the leader of a strong and independent turkey. he has demands for europe, money for syrian refugees, relaxation of visa rules for his turkish compatriots, and accustomed union. at the beginning of 2018, the german foreign minister zip mar gabrielle received his turkish counterpart chavel sharla for tea. a few weeks after this controversial meeting,

dennis eugene was released. he claimed he didn't want to be the subject of any deal, but turkey wanted to get rid of him. as a saul thus leaf i last long shot. frankie, by the fact is that the releases came about because these detentions had become too burdensome by because the german media was constantly reporting on the arrest and attention to soft and because there were all these solidarity rallies. so all and all hunger, it was putting turkey in an increasingly bad light. ok, in an emotional issue of leashed alter german demands for the release of political prisoners were dismissed as interference in internal affairs. ambassador adman was regularly summoned to the foreign ministry in ankara. a total of $28.00 times during his 5 year posting montana and trips on van minor in booster long

i believe my so meanings were often being used as an instrument and domestic politics. the idea was to show the citizens of turkey that once in a while, these germans need to be given a good talking to delivery. it leaves and come a message directed at the electorate, but also at the opposition at home and abroad. it didn't have the didn't know some people participate in rallies of terrorist organizations in germany and then want to go on vacation in turkey. we have now taken some measures to deal with them. they are arrested upon entry and sent right back is also yellow. on still am i so let those words have slaymen, so low have deterring some people from taking to the streets in germany again because they also have family members and turkey and fear for them if they participate in demonstrations here would a 1st, unless lindsay, he has his pathetic in

june 2018 german kurdish singer hose on china was arrested in edna in the west of turkey. shortly before the presidential election, she had performed in the election rally for the pro kurdish opposition party h. d p. she was brought before a judge on the charge of belonging to a terrorist organization and said to have contacts to the p k. k. it was the beginning of a 3 year odyssey. yeah. today her son, china is back in germany. she kept a diary about her time in turkish custody and is now writing a book together with her daughter and a friend. she clearly remembers the horrors of the day. she was taken to the prison in edna it then and didn't exert the net when it quote a lot at public. he been hitched as a heavy or when i came to adding a prisoner, i didn't know how bad it would be that they would treat me like they did wish

tanya's 3 guards brought me to a small cell where they undressed me. g one grabbed my right arm, the other grabbed my left arm and held my head above the 3rd one knelt down in front of me, held me back with one hand and penetrated me deeply with the other. all the way up to my uterus. i screamed and cried. why are you doing this? i started bleeding all over. he said, well, maybe you have hidden some heroin up there. or did he rescue adderly north a sack lunch? it didn't be right that had been added an advisor. jim grew 20th her daughter, good o dylan ers learned about the arrest at home in germany. they didn't get, but they were only allowed one phone call a week to an m been in at dylan edge is the worst part was the time i did in the prison in adenine or be especially the last month i was kept in isolation as i almost died of hunger and thirst. it was

a place where people were tortured and i could hear their screams full as you will . i wasn't coping mentally and thought the best thing would be to just die. but the german consoled talk to me out of that. in germany, gern old publicly calls for the release of her mother. as her mother's health keeps deteriorating in the prison journal decides to travel to turkey to visit even though she is aware of the risk of them from i already have my mother. oh, are they going to take me to another on what grounds the family they already have a family member. so you think they wouldn't take me just for being her daughter and that's impossible. oh, that was my thinking in. it was very naive to many people who watch this will probably say, how can you even be so naive, but the time i wait the options like what's the most important thing may be seeing my mother in law for me. so girl flew to turkey and as soon as

she landed in istanbul, she was detained at the airport by the pass gauntlet. at the passport control, they told me to come alone, because according to the computer system, i had an outstanding warrant i was escorted into a separate room by a couple of police. there i was told i was supposedly a member of a terrorist organization over there. so she had no explanation for this accusation . and the following day, she was brought before a judge. i met and, and had said, my lawyers simply requested to see the case files. they were sent by fax. i had an contained documents about a demonstration that took place in cologne in 2012, a chase that was dropped on as i thought, was this all about? this can't be alicia. i had the shock of a lifetime. this is kind of fun. in 2012, she took part in a demonstration on board, a taurus steamboat in cologne, when 9 activists voice their support for the kurdish cause. the case

against curnow was dropped by the german authorities. but years later, those files from cologne turned up in ankara. i flatter surface, if i have traveled to turkey on multiple occasions since 2012 and nothing has happened. oh so why now and why only now. and then i thought, well, maybe it has something to do with the fact that i've been speaking up for my mother in the media these past months. a probably started taking a closer look and fished out this folder and allow a harmless demonstration lead to journals, undoing because edwin's prosecutors and judges treat such public manifestations as crimes. even sharing a critical tweet can lead to harsh punishment even more. so if you are someone who works for opposition media like mashaila tolo. after finishing her studies in 2014, she moved to turkey. she earned

a little money on the side as the translator for the left wing news agency, eta, it didn't occur to her at the time that she herself could become the target of anti terror investigations. it would exited a vomit. i would say that i simply got caught up and what was happening at the time, michelle, at all. they weren't looking to imprison michelle or toller in particular, but they carried out raids against the free press and i was part of the bi catch. i changed my whole life in turkey, hired as had my liver, for in less than that. okay. we had already visited her is tam ball apartment in 2018 where she lives with her husband, so at and there young son, michelle. a toller recounts the events of the night when an anti terrorist squad stormed the apartment where she and her then 2 year old son was sleeping her husband. so at was already in custody at the time on suspicion of terrorism until the regular silverlock of what you can see that the ball to still broken these and

hearing. they burst in here and slammed me on to this floor by the kitchen hanging out of it. i was lying here with dozens of men standing on top of me. men on the ultimate of austin, men's honest. my son came running out from the room across the hall. he was crying because a member of the swat team had pointed a machine gun at him in the dark. in dalton and machine give elvin gillis to 30th. for hours she had to look on as the security forces ransacked her apartment. and before being taken away, she had to leave her 2 year old son with neighbors does. doesn't have mice or give the thing that affected me the most and left me traumatized was probably the police detention on baton street. it was known as a torture center and eighty's and ninety's finished with the law. i was constantly threatened as well to if they wanted to scare and intimidate me if i was the legally interrogated without my lawyers being notified of infamy. i can only say

that they took every measure to break me during that period of my detention will mister progression and his offsite after a few days in police custody, mashaila told lou was transferred to the women's prison in buckhead creek and on readiness to me, clement had the lawyer came to see me and told me that my son was doing really bad and that when i heard that i had to make a choice and decided that he had to be with me was ang. when's almost by me, isn't the psalm was allowed to join his mother in prison and spent the next 6 months behind bars with mashaila. but a women's prison is no place for children. she goes out, hunt for toys were forbidden and present. i looked, i'd say in fact, we didn't have any thing when we arrived on hamilton. hi, nick. we made up the whole big, colorful world together and let our fantasy run free. no less so that my son could

cope with the situation. i've best sold ice cold. meanwhile, she tried to defend herself against the accusations of supporting terror. but turkish media loyal to the government had already given their verdict, is what actually rhoda was a terrorist and foreign agent. how can you refute others when you've been locked up and stripped of your voice, or how can i change a story that has already been written and proved that it was nothing like they are claiming if i have no means to do without that so happened. she decided to fight and go public, family and friends, organized to protest alongside dennis you gel and p destroyed. now, michelle atalla became turkey his most famous political prisoner, and thereby a problem for both sides. turkey and germany. a subject of behind the scenes negotiations escaped him of it. i am of possibility. it's my fault imbecile. there

are always some reports in the press. i, for example, in relation to former chancellor shrewd us closer to turkey, written that that was made public. so nobody can deny that diplomatic harpies took place between turkey and germany about our release of he has cut d like in the stuff. well, i don't think that the german government entered into something like that. also his and i never did. i can say that probably none of us would have wanted that rudy all sagen. thus this kind of fallen slush on this give. later the talks seemed to have been successful. michelle, his father was overjoyed after almost 8 months. his daughter was to be released from pre trial detention, but apparently some forces did not like this court decision, yada. so yes, it was like a scene out of a spy, a movie fo, as an old one given and 7 as a car pulled up a silver car with tilted windows in. and i was simply driven through the crowd and abducted from the prison and foot awesome defenders. have it on a split,

said m. m m, from late afternoon until the evening turned into a car chase and a song sacked on a convoy of embassy cars and cameras. teams was feeding through east amble. nobody knew where mashaila toner was being held and why she was still in police custody. essentially say something does he not milan? after several stops at various police station, since we finally found her in a small precinct in the city center and follies, she was being detained. there, lot of asi fiscal. that's one of the portfolio is here of this was told who is being held here, which we know this was what we don't knows on which grounds, etc. if that's what i'm trying to find out what you can also just been on indies, a police are start. so i walked into the police station and explained to them that i would only be leaving together with michelle, who told her unblocked for the wise i would stay on slabs yet blacken. in the

course of the night, the german citizen is finally released, but she is not allowed to leave the country and master upon regularly to the police . if you have all the sentiment orders mentioned, i think it's just another method to intimidate those that are released one more time before letting them go. as the implication is, that even though you are free, now, we can come and get you any time adapt. you may leave you somewhere and nobody will know and will upset. so kind of a compliment. oh, good. all de la nurse was also stock in turkey. after her arrested is dumble airport. she was initially released, but she too was given an exit ban. she didn't know where to stay or how to finance herself in target or at home in cologne. she ran a social counseling center that now might have to close. oh,

the existence as bogo in dodge land is defeated. your livelihood as a citizen. and germany is in danger, amanda, because you no longer have an income, her cousin, you're not allowed to put your personal affairs in order. you need people to do it for you, et cetera. in that regard, an exit ban from the country is tantamount to imprisonment enough to your own clothes was my landline dish. oh my god, if this country will kill uses if not in prison than outside, psychologically because of fear on. but then i did a little research and realized that it's quite easy to find human smugglers in turkey. she says i liked and english wise african after nearly 4 months of confinement in turkey, she attempted to cross the border to greece at the everett river with the help of smugglers. but the escape attempt failed. she was caught by turkish security forces and transferred to the nearby adeena prison.

and to let as i know, the shifting a thing, sir days, i shall escape that. i thought it would l. dena is probably one of the worst prisons there is, but it was only a transitional prison for me, and after that i was transferred to godsa and didn't take it back one day. when i arrived in kepsa, i was placed in a cell for political prisoners. i with the kurdish women by this english. i was happy because there was finally some warm water and there was a garden escape and forgot, well, maybe not a garden, but at least a court yard surrounded by 4 high walls and hole off. here it was different in edina and, and as i knew, we were kept in the cell for 23 hours. i still in there said 12 women in one room with 6 beds. zix. that is to say, we had to share a bed, longish laugh in that class. so i was happy to be able to breathe freely and stay in that courtyard for some hours and i was wish offers

a whole fight after unsure it was the worst time in prison, but i was able to endure it because i knew it. i had done, i was like a school you were trying to go home and now you're being detained. fred, but will say my dad was a fizzle, i was able to deal with that. ask i had, i was fine with it back home. but the time and house arrest at that still gives me nightmares. cuz his staff, one over she won't have time. in december 2019, after nearly 3 months in prison, girl was finally transferred to house arrest. we were allowed to visit her there, accompanied by i shall jelic girdles lawyer we had to agree not to broadcast the footage. as long as colonel remained in turkey,

similar conditions apply to house arrest and prison visits are allowed cameras not . she was living in her uncle's apartment, not allowed to leave the house and having to wear an electronic ankle bracelet. the essential angles was grumbling issue of our share in physical us. she. it has to stay on 247 shine time to make is that i'm not allowed to damage it either because then it sends out a signal for so they told me cancelled. i have to keep it on when i shower and go to bed. russia, it's really not a nice feeling. it makes you feel like a serious criminal. no. i've lived in germany for 25 years and studied, carved out my own professional path, had an apartment or friends, a boyfriend and family. that's all gone. completely gone completely a so club i can understand that people are afraid to

even just write me a letter ice. hm. and i understand that they are too afraid to call the eye exams and so yeah. control manager still somehow you lose everything it gets you out on. but i also know that every story has an end and whether it's a happy and or a sad one, gets an end at least vicious is. so i believe that sometime this too will pass my current situation. i just know do when sad physicians to begin with good old kept her ordeal, hidden from her mother, so as not to worry her horse on china remembers how she only learned about her daughter's fate. after several months, cuz i must get a get that done. i. i didn't know anything about this that my daughter had been

detained at arrival, jailed her full months and not been allowed to leave turkey afterwards. they kept the soul from me at ease. uh huh. when the lawyer finally told me, i almost lost my mind. shame kindly to my last little update for ah, either, for her own situation has become less important to her than mine, vinegar. wish us my distress. young people say you knew the dangers. so why did you go there in the 1st place? i sat down we laughed a broken woman behind a few weeks after our visit, colonel wanted to kill herself by jumping off the balcony. ah, ah, romance clovis, the clinician by miss i think it was sometime in march. i just couldn't go on

locked mac because at that point when i was completely exhausted and at a breaking point psychologically months, they still hadn't brought any charges. and the visor stack when you were not strong in at that point i wasn't mad. you just want it to be over. i just thought this is it. my cousin stopped me. she locked me in the bathroom like half an hour later, the consul arrived from is mere. they contacted a german psychologist who talked to me over the phone, chanted, i just let it all out. of course, i always knew that the consulate would support me lavish in madame, but for each passing day. and you will lose a little hope. fennic monday hoffman after months awaiting her trial, finally began, and colonel was allowed to leave the house in man nisa. the 24 hours it was the

1st time in half a year that she could move freely. she was allowed to attend the trial in person and travelled to istanbul. the evening before the court hearing, she had the chance to practice with her lawyer. ha ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. oh, all i keep going here. yes, we are talking about events that happened in 2012 more than 8 years ago. i don't speak so harshly, please, but a little more calmly. this isn't calm enough, okay. this i can recommend but honorable judges, the events we're talking about happened 8 years ago in 2012. as you noted, i therefore find it hard to remember every single detail did you take part in the actions or not? well, there it is inconceivable for me to participate in

a terrorist action. i'm not a member of any terrorist organization, and i don't support any such organizations either. the 2nd sunday, the next morning, both price and representatives of the embassy were present at the main proceedings . the hearing only lasted 15 minutes. everything seemed staged. and sure enough the house arrest was lifted. yeah, well, i'm still not allowed to leave the country and i have to check in weekly, but no more house arrest and no ankle bracelet. that's something at least this thing is in out this thing has finally come off after almost 7 months. i just have to wash it a bit and disinfect it before i give it back to them. but it's off. so freedom or partial freedom at least feels good. hi, i'm a school. i'm glad if right of,

of the joy was short lived because at some point the stress and the psychological pressure returns will come down. and then you realize that you still can't leave this country if you're still a prisoner here, only now your radius is a little bigger, their class as it know the so think less than the political prisoners continued to be a strain on german turkish relations. but both countries were working to improve those ties. mutual, economic and security interests was simply too important. the tensions was slowly easing. that seemed to be having an impact on the situation of the political prisoners. there were finally some developments in the case of house on china, despite a court having decided shortly before that she should remain in custody girdles. mother was unexpectedly released from prison at the end of september 2020. the

colors sign in. and what i like, how is that even possible? obviously, we are not in a country that is governed by the rule of law, but still a judgment is past 10 days ago saying she has to stay in jail. and then 10 days later she is free to go. i stood, i'll get it finished with either miss. ah, ah yes, a burden this is up and been in the 1st time i saw her, my health was not good the day. and the day i had my chest pains on and maybe it was because of the joy i dont know, but i felt very lost at the time. finish today in later glenmuir, m. amr or on the 10th of mckyrie timmy, he said he had a ah the st minute adelcia for more. it wasn't my mother from son months back to where she was looking, emaciated and scared. it wasn't the mother. i knew i was mad. i asked myself,

who is this woman isn't? this isn't my mother had a motor re united once more. mother and daughter rented a small apartment in istanbul while awaiting their next court date. their ordeal were dragged on over several months last night. after realizing that the apartment was under surveillance, they decided to leave is dan bull and stay with different relatives and friends. girls trial was taking place in is done all her mother's in edina, a 3 hour car ride away. language is one, so the, it's a political decision. it, it has nothing to do with the rule of law apartment with political decisions. there is always a, back and forth. everything is subject to change. so i might be acquitted to day or put back in jail. nonsense as him, you never know. think about it when every court date was accompanied by an

agonizing uncertainty once again, the proceedings lasted only a few minutes. once again, the trip was in vain. and once again, the court was adjourned, setting a new date for months later, we'll give you all money. my case is not animal case, better political one. i know that of satan venue. i think there are some problems between the 2 countries that have nothing to do with me. i mean, i feel like a ping pong ball are being bounced around me. it makes me very sad. i do remember without any talk is your mashaila tolliver found the same way after 8 months in pre trial detention. she was set free and moved back to its damn ball. but the ongoing process would drag on for months as would her husbands for a long time their lives were on hold. does the hard to implement,

still not allowed to leave the country. honestly, that something i expected. i knew from the beginning that all decisions would be politically motivated and she can go down and i believe that was the case to day observes over the televisions, which is more, sir, in my view, the document i had to keep submitting doctor mansfield, i was not allowed to leave the country survived, and as soon as i left is humble, a whole column of police officers followed me, nor from foot. it was a time when i felt even more i secure than i didn't prison. no, because i knew that the police were always at my door and that the anti terrorist unit could come from me again while i felt so chi from country the family spent 8 months in his damn ball. finally, the judge decided that the ban on leaving the country would be lifted, that mashaila toler would be allowed to return to germany with her son. shortly thereafter, the husband saw it was also allowed to leave turkey. as he's in law as gifts,

and they always said that there was a witness who had testified against me. i had mine. and in the end, my lawyer proved that there never was such an ominous witness that there never were any investigations against me in turkey. kind, i am a king of hon. ye might king mission at. okay. they couldn't even prove that there ever had been my suspicion of any membership and a terrorist organization that so the visa doesn't come. on the other hand, it did not look like journal di lan worse and her mother who's on china would be leaving the country any time. soon. on the contrary, after nearly 2 years in turkey, many months in the courts. and despite the flimsy evidence, the prosecutor surprisingly demanded. 15 years imprisonment for journal. the verdict was to be handed down a few days later. on down as i go, okay, the next f as a ads. when i told myself, i don't want to go to jail for 15 years, at least not for something that i didn't do. what then i summed up all my courage

and thought a guy, i don't care anymore. his commer shall. if i'm going to jail any way, i don't want to regret not having tried to get back home escape while a house is physical by the half of this time it worked. the day before the verdict, she escaped to greece, and on the day of the sentencing, she excused herself due to illness. but by then, she was already back in germany, where we could reach her by phone. to this day, she can't understand the harsh ruling guilty with a sentence at 10 years and 5 months. yet at the same time, the exit ban was lifted. torn alice or ink of this other fire language with aloe, my god, they will do anything not to lose faith in one and say you can't sentence some one to 10 years and 5 months in prison, and then say you're free to go. now we're done here by done with what for by i get

sentenced to prison and then i can go home or how's again, board the next plane and fly back in the house. it makes no sense at all. i still don't get it. i just have to laugh, it's just inexplicable of a as an off i sent late, the fog and items in relief vanish turned off again. i don't want to speculate about the reasons. the result is what counts. and the result is that miss oars is free and was able to leave the country for her german home to learn how to system deals with this glaring paradox is for the system itself to figure out to be it does more so sustain savoglio is carmella hausa tenisha sized fat i know and her when i got back home i was alone at 1st. it i opened the door and everything was just away. i left it fun out from an adviser. they lag lesson had to i said i was so tired after the long travel that

i just got in a little and crashed on the couch. i says, all knew the high schools i asked in court. i only woke up the day after my special nigger come over the next few months, she tried to get back to her old life. she reopened her social counseling center. a friend offered her an empty room and his office my 9, my old business cards. i will have to change the oh god. oh wow look what i found. did you made? does it, does it no longer thing they are from the prison?

i didn't sit still in prison as you can see. to do this, to everyone surprise, the exit ban on her mother was lifted. one month after journals return. after 3 years in turkish captivity horse on china returned to cologne. m o, the 2 women were living together once more. and although house on china was happy to be back in germany, she didn't feel safe fare either. to cuba among other betty psych chip or the germans were very supportive. the german government looked off to me. but i'm still afraid there are many turkish fascists here as well. anything can happen. ha, ha ha for girls. oh, her time in turkey sometimes feels like

a bad dream. well has and fiendish, finished iowa. i don't feel hatred. is it just a kind of disbelief and disappointment and how can you do something like this to a person i'm? it is simply stripped them of 2 years of their life. man, i could have done a 1000 other things in the meantime. i asked them being dick handy. it in destination says had this 1st 1000 and they took all of that away from me on a 2nd on von ah, to day michelle. a tony who is living with her husband and their son in her father's house in the south of germany. after 4 years of prisons exit bands and court cases in turkey. the prosecution finally asked for an acquittal due to lack of evidence. a has evidence, i'd say you helped us. i was so angry when i heard that the prosecution was dropping the case. however, i have been traumatized,

experienced for oppression and live. i was kept in prison with my 2 year old son for months on end. and in horrible conditions in need to then hear the prosecutor saying that it was all for nothing. so hell thus, and that's unlike exact. as far less finished the turkish president has accomplished one. go as long as he is in power. his critics like mashaila tolo colonel dylan ers horse on china and all the others that have been released will not set foot in turkey. and their stories will serve as a warning to his political opponents. i thus fit the food assistance. it all indicates that turkey has him improved in the least i took, the repression has become even more persistent. besides long when i was there in 9 german citizens were officially being held in turkey by the that's what the council told me at the time of my guitar to day. i think there are more than 60 m. it was a 3 mm. dozens of germans are still being held in

tacky to day. according to the german foreign office. they are kept in custody or subject to exit bats. many for political reasons. their cases did not make headlines, but they share the fate of the 3 women who have told their stories. they are or victims of a system that is declared, its critics enemies of the state. ah enter the conflict. so confronting the powerful 18 months after the violence on the capitol hill, it's clear that the u. s. democracy was in greater danger than previously believe. i guess this week from tom and david from writer and columnist for the atlantic

magazine. he says, the stakes were, i'm still are frightening. recall completed in 30 minutes on d. w. o, a letter c she. when i arrived here, i slept with a single people in a room, 9th and it was hard. i wish fear i even got white hair is learning the german language a lot. this kids to me and craig opportunity to interact with you want to know their story, migrant verifying and reliable information for migrant. ah
