Turkey's CHP reacts to arrests of people calling out for secularism

Speaking on behalf of Progressive Democrats group of CHP, Necdet Saraç reminded that the young people who got arrested for speaking out in public against ISIL and other jihadist groups and calling for secularism were ‘arrested by courts that are constitutionally supposed to be the protector of secularism’.

Saraç said the decision of the court ‘was in resemblance of dark ages of the medieval times’ and said it was ‘absolutely unacceptable’.

The Progressive Democrats group of CHP also called on all other political parties and civil society institutions that are in defense of fundamental rights and freedoms to take on a role to stand against ‘breaching of law’ and to ‘practice secularism effectively.’

Saraç added: “We are fed up with all the talk made in the name of ‘political Islam’, which in reality raises ignorance and bigotry by infusing hatred into society. We’ve also had enough with lies on Constitutional changes... You (ruling party AKP) have become incapable of running the country. You cause the crisis and chaos to deepen more each day... You’ll be brought before justice one day... Resign, resign, resign!”
