Letter from Nedim Türfent:
“Now you’ll see the power of the Turk! What did this state do to you?” These were the threats hurled by the Turkish Police Special Forces with a deafening howl to some 40 Turkish and Kurdish workers who were lying on the ground in handcuffs following an early dawn raid on a worksite in my hometown, Yüksekova. After I exposed this harrowing scenery with its video footage, both the governor’s office and the Turkish interior ministry opened an investigation about the policemen in the blink of an eye.
