So-called Terrorist

In the last seven years in Turkey, the "crime of terrorism" has been expanded to include every action against the ruling blog and every opposition identity. While police reports virtually replace the law; Specially authorized courts are used as a devastating mechanism against groups declared as "enemies".

Even exercising legal rights is considered a terrorist crime by "state terrorism" that targets pluralist democracy, organized society, free individuals and critical mind. The result is clear: With seventy thousand defendants, eight thousand of whom are detained, being tried in ÖYMs, Turkey has surpassed even the record of the September 12 trials.

In this book, Ismail Saymaz examines 30 separate case files; Two-year-old Sana, who was pacing around the prison with her mother, Berivan, the stone-throwing child, Berna and Ferhat, who opened a "free education" banner, Ayse Karakaya, who was tried for commemorating her son, Balgün Family, who was lynched because they were thought to be Kurds, were accused of murder in which they did not participate. It sheds light on the story of the writer Dogan Akhanli, who received a life sentence, the lawyer accused of having Ibrahim Tatlises shot, a young woman who was called the leader of a military espionage organization, and dozens of other "so-called terrorists".
