That's great news grizabella. if I were in Calis I'd be there no hesitation. I have followed this story on Facebook and shared on Hayed page to raise awareness of this barbaric cruelty. Truly heartbreaking.  :'(

Joining a demonstration outside a Turkish court of law while the country is operating under a State of Emergency.

You must be crazy.

The timing of this protest could not be more bizarre, two days before an election with tensions running high in many parts of the country.

From the Foreign Office travel advice page...


Presidential and parliamentary elections will take place on 24 June 2018. This may result in rallies and demonstrations around the country. You should avoid large gatherings and follow the advice of the local authorities.

As a little diversion to this topic ...........

Has anyone, since the state of emergency was implemented, ever been stopped by the Polis or Gendarme and asked to produce their passport ??

(Apart from as part of a traffic stop or at this demo)

My eldest and girlfriend were stopped whilst travelling to Olu by Dolmus yesterday, so yes, stops are definitely happening.
