GIRLS BEATEN BY TURK COP HELD 'FOR ATTACKING HIM'

The cops side of the story is that him and his partner (motorcycle cops) were called to a fracas on the beach at 3am where they found the girls and others (all apparently drunk) having/making a row, as they approached the gathering a bottle was thrown at the policeman hitting him in the face. He admits he may have over reacted in pulling the girls hair whilst trying to fight off her sister.
Throws a slightly different light on the case.

Talk about being one sided. End of the day these 2 girls must have done something to provoke them and as it being Marmaris, being drunk at 3am and throwing a bottle at a copper is more believable then a copper just beating them up as they were out on a stroll.

Of course, the point is that 99% of Mirror readers won't think that, and there are many of them and they are all potential holidaymakers for Turkey. It's bad news in several ways.

Still no execuse for the level of violence 'allegedly' used. Publicity like this really helps to further the EU cause!

Wel it's amazing what facebook throws up sometimes :) Reading her page it seems she managed to keep her phone whilst in the cell and doesn't sound that traumatised to me. Maybe I'm being unkind but she appears to be lapping up the attention:

I'm assuming it's the same girl as she resides in Peterborough and has been in jail very recently in Turkey. Also her mum seems to have been with her. However - no mention of the twin sister in her siblings so maybe she just has an unlucky name and comes from the wrong town?

Jeez it would appear from the message dates that it happened on their first night out!

Sister?

With the caption "Prison food. Was a filler"
That looks alright that :D

Just seen their dad and mum but they have had the sense to restrict their pages. Seems their 12 year old boy has the middle name 'England'.
Strange that they went back to give evidence yet to the girls it seems like just another holiday booked a few months back and they couldn't wait to go back. Not what I would expect if they had been beaten up by a policemen.
