WE WANT JUSTICE, WE placed next to Pinar Selek

This is an urgent call to all women, lesbians, groups, organizations and feminist networks by Amargo Women's Solidarity Cooperative.

Pinar Selek, femminista, sociologa, pacifista, antimilitarista, scrittrice e tra le fondatrici di Amargi, si trova ad affrontare di nuovo il rischio di un ergastolo in un processo per cui è stata già assolta due volte.

Come l’opinione pubblica in parte conosce già, è diventata un bersaglio a causa della sua ricerca sociologica condotta nel 1996, relativa alle condizioni del conflitto armato tra la Turchia e il Kurdistan e alle possibilità di riconciliazione. Condotta in detenzione preventiva, la ricerca le è stata sequestrata ed è stata pesantemente torturata per farle dire i nomi delle persone curde che aveva intervistato. Siccome si è rifiutata di dare alle autorità i nomi delle sue fonti, è stata arrestata. While he was already in prison, his name has been linked to an explosion in Istanbul's Spice Bazaar, and she is accused of taking part in this alleged conspiracy against the government. During the trial were denied and set aside the false statements obtained by torturing Pinar. Finally after two and a half Pinar Selek is released. However, even if it was paid twice, the 9th Penal Chamber of the Supreme Court has decided to contest for the second time the acquittal and called Pinar Selek is held again asking for a heavy sentence to 36 years imprisonment. The Criminal General Assembly rejected a prosecutor's head and sent the case back to the 12th Court of aggravated crimes in Istanbul, which once gave him absolution.


Pinar Selek The case will then once again revised February 9, 2011, the 12th Court of aggravated crimes of Istanbul, Besiktas.

Pinar Selek's case has already become a symbol of the struggle for freedom and against all injustice. Having very close relations with groups "marginalized" dal sistema, Pinar Selek è molto conosciuta in Turchia e all’estero per i suoi libri sulla violenza contro le donne transgender a Istanbul, sulla storia delle lotte pacifiste in Turchia e, infine, sulla costruzione della mascolinità nel contesto del servizio militare. Questo ultimo libro Sürüne Sürüne Erkek Olmak (Condurre una vita da cani: la mascolinità) è pubblicato anche in Germania con il titolo, Zum Mann gehätschelt. Zum Mann gedrillt.

Da 12 anni, molti noti intellettuali turchi e stranieri, hanno dichiarato il loro aperto sostegno a Pinar Selek partecipando anche personalmente al suo processo. PEN Germania conduce una campagna internazionale di sostegno e solidarietà che è disponibile at
