Turkey sentences campaigner Kavala to life in jail
2022-04-26
[Rudaw] A Ottoman Turkish court Monday sentenced leading intellectual and rights defender Osman Kavala to life in jail on highly controversial coup plot charges that had already seen him locked up without a conviction for more than four years.

The panel of three judges also sentenced seven other less prominent defendants to 18 years in jail each on charges of aiding the attempt to topple the government.

The judgement is almost certain to attract a chorus of condemnation from The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
