A new hearing is to be held in order to complete the procedural deficiencies in the court cases that have now been combined with the Spice Bazaar case, from which sociologist-writer Pınar Selek has already been acquitted three times. This hearing shall take place on Thursday , the 22nd of November, 2012, at 10.30 a.m., in the Istanbul 12th High Criminal Court, which is within the Caglayan Court House.
We are currently living in a period in which various developments that damage Turkey’s democracy by way of law are on the rise. We are aware that, in this present context, there may be further attempts to wear Pınar Selek down, and destroy her reputation. In light of this, we believe in the importance of repeating and renewing our solidarity.
Now, once again, we shall take part in the hearing on t22nd of November, in order to collectively demand a final and conclusive acquittal for Pınar Selek, once and for all. We will continue our struggle for justice, with patience and determination, until the very end.We will inform you on the process after the trial.
