The
wheels of justice in Turkey sometimes turn slowly or not at all. Consider the case of Ali Ismail Korkmaz,
where key evidence incriminating police in his death was “deleted.” Or the shocking lack of credible
investigation in the Turkish bombing of more than thirty civilians, eighteen of
whom were children. Impunity and justice denied… the list is a long and painful
one stretching across many years, and many shattered lives. Sevan And
then there are the times that justice moves in strange and unfathomable
ways. Such is the case of Sevan
Nişanyan, an Armenian – Turkish writer and public intellectual who is currently
in prison for… illegal construction on his own property.
