    MP @gergerliogluof is among the bravest & most principled rights defenders in Turkey, consistently demanding justice for the most marginalized victims without regard for their political identity. The govt has targeted him, he faces a bogus conviction. #GergerlioğlununYanındayız

    There must be political will from the top to probe all dimensions of gunman’s attack on HDP Izmir office & murder of Deniz Poyraz while police were on duty outside the building. The presidency & govt must urgently end the hateful discourse against the HDP

    Astonishing to think that Robert Spano, European Court of Human Rights president @ECHR_CEDH is planning to accept an honorary doctorate in law from Istanbul Univ which summarily dismissed scores of academics - among them Mehmet Altan - in an unlawful way. Think again Judge Spano.

    HRW: Gergerlioğlu'nun mahkumiyeti, ifade özgürlüğü hakkının açık bir ihlali olup bunun kendisini meclisten uzaklaştırmak için bir bahane olarak kullanılması demokratik kuralların ve siyasi örgütlenme hakkının hiçe sayıldığını gösterecektir

    Turkey's top appeal court decision to uphold the baseless convictions of Osman Kavala to life imprisonment, Çiğdem Mater, Can Atalay, Mine Özerden, Tayfun Kahraman to 18 yrs in the Gezi trial is a monstrous abuse of the justice system, proof that courts obey the presidency

    MP @gergerliogluof is the voice of 1000s in Turkey dismissed from jobs, prosecuted & jailed over the past 5 years by the Erdoğan govt; some have been tortured, even disappeared & impunity reigns. Expelling Gergerlioğlu from parliament would be a reprisal for his human rights work

    HRW: Govt should disclose where İnandı is held & secure his release; ensure full medical exam from independent medic in hospital w/o security officials present; grant urgent access to a lawyer of his choice with a view to prompt appearance before a judge.

    Human Rights Watch: The deeply flawed conviction of Gergerlioğlu for a Tweet should not become the pretext to expel him from parliament. The Turkish government should let him carry on his legitimate parliamentary work as an elected deputy
