DİYARBAKIR - MED TUHAD- FED Co-Chair Mehmet Temizyüz who drew attention to the situation of detoriorating sick prisoners and the violations of rights they are being subjected to on a daily basis, made a call to CPT and Amnesty International to be involved in the process.

 

While the sick prisoners who were excluded from the new penal execution regulation detoriorate on a daily basis, prisoners' solidarity organisation MED TUHAD-FED Co-Chair Mehmet Temizyüz made a call to CPT and Amnesty international to be involved in the process.

 

Temizyüz stating that every prison administration has a different way of applying pressure on the prisoners, underlined that the prisons have become prison camps lately. Stating that the prisoners can not use any of their rights, Temizyüz said: "There is no constitution in Turkey. The authority for these violations of rights are being obtained from the Ministry of Justice, Interior and the Presidency. The petition in Bakırköy women's prison could not be siezed without their knowladge. There are violations in Van, Kırşehir and other prisons. Those are also violations of international law protocols. Therefore we are calling on to the Committee against Torture (CPT) and Amnesty International to intervene to the situation."
