Journalists are exposed to a lot of injustice in that country.

Turkey's crimes

 Businessperson and rights advocate Osman Kavala, who has been arrested for 1,490 days, has said that his imprisonment is intended to intimidate all civil society activists.

"The most striking characteristic of the espionage charge brought against me after the ECtHR decision to continue my arrest is that it is not based on the description of espionage in the laws," he told DW Turkish.

"Therefore, the obligation to present appropriate evidence for the crime of espionage in the law disappears. For this reason, I had likened the charges to Nazi-era practices."

In the last hearing of the case concerning the 2013 Gezi Park protests on Friday (November 26), the court ruled for the continuation of Kavala's arrest.
