Cumhuriyet's detained journalist: 'I bow down only to my mother and father to kiss their hands'

Following the decision of the court in İstanbul against the journalists, executives, and lawyers of the opposition daily Cumhuriyet, renown journalist and author Ahmet Şık – who is among the 5 of the defendants that the court ordered for a continuation of arrest – has once again given an assertive message to the authorities in Turkey.

Şık said: “The decision given here today says to us: ‘we are going to make you come down on your knees’. All those bullies; their hitmen and institutions; all those viles lacking dignity; and, all members of this organized malignancy should know this: So far, I have bowed down only to my mother and father to kiss their hands. And, it is always going to be the same!”
