Great P. R. own goal again for Erdogan and more importantly the image of Turkey.

Reminds me of the aftermath of the protests a few months back. Who on Earth sends police in to physically drag lawyers out of courtrooms in front of the TV cameras of the World and arrest them - only to release them without charge the next day!!!
