13 Year Old Boy Detained For Insulting Turkish Prime Minister On Facebook by diasporaman(m): 5:26pm On Feb 26, 2016
A 13-year-old teen was briefly detained on charges of “insulting” President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Facebook. The boy’s social network account had been under police monitoring for as long as nine months, local media reported.

The boy’s house was raided by anti-terror teams on Tuesday after a tip-off by “a secret witness,” who claimed that the boy, mentioned only as A. Ş., had insulted Erdogan in a comment that he allegedly posted below a video on Facebook, Bianet news agency reported.

The teen denied all allegations and, following questioning by police, was released due to his young age.

“I have an account on Facebook named A.Ş. I used the name Y.Ş. for a while, but then I started to use my name,” the teen told the prosecutor, according to the record of the statement, entitled “Juvenile pushed to crime.”

“I didn’t share the post ‘o. ç. [Turkish abbreviation for son of a b*tch] Erdogan, see this violence, it will eventually be accounted for…’ I rather share posts on video games. Sometimes my friends share posts on my page, they know my password, [but] I don’t accept such posts. Those are not mine,” he stated.

A country where insulting the prime minister is a crime. If Nigeria were to be Turkey by now all our prisons would have been filled up.
