TORTURERS REPORT - 2
Advocates of Silenced Turkey (AST) prepares reports to record and document crimes against human dignity, such as torture and ill-treatment, which have become systematic in Turkey. The report in your hand is the second part of the study, which was prepared in order to register those who were involved in this crime, their instigators, those who encouraged the crime by praising it, and those who protected the torturer public officials by abuse of power. The report aims to be a record so that torturers will one day be held to an independent legal account. Hundreds of torture victims apply to human rights organizations in Turkey to fight for their rights every year. Still, many victims are not so...
Turkiye'de Yargiya Darbe
AST, Türkiye’de yargının siyasallaşması ve hakim-savcılara yönelik kitlesel fişlemeler, ihraçlar, gözaltılar, tutuklamalar, işkence ve kötü muameleler hakkında “Yargıya Darbe” başlıklı bir rapor hazırladı. 100 sayfalık raporda kronolojik olarak AKP iktidarı tarafından yargı erkinin bağımsızlığına yönelik müdahaleler, hukukun nasıl askıya alındığı ve nihayetinde yargının siyasallaşması belgeleriyle anlatılıyor. Mağduriyetler bölümünde ise binlerce yargı mensubunun yasadışı şekilde tutuklanmasına, sözde darbe girişiminde bulundukları veya terör örgütü üyesi oldukları gerekçesiyle yargılanırken cezaevlerinde nasıl işkence ve kötü muamelelere maruz kaldıklarına dikkat çekiliyor. Ağır hücre koşulları nedeniyle sakat kalan, zihinsel rahatsızlıkları ortaya çıkan veya hayatını kaybeden hakim ve savcıların ortak noktası hükümeti rahatsız eden kararlara imza atmış olmaları…
The Life and Legacy of Gokhan Acikkollu
I will never stop seeking for justice and trying to hold those perpetrators accountable for their crimes, both in this world and the next. I will never say “Well, it is just fate, and there is nothing we can do about it.” No, I will not step aside! I will demand justice until justice is done! Yes, I believe firmly in destiny and the Hereafter, but I also believe that if I let those perpetrators get away with their horrendous crimes, shame on me! Yes, shame on me! Until my last breath, I will chase the murderers and their bosses! I will do everything in my power, and if I cannot get any results in this world… There is a God! There is a Hereafter! There is Divine Justice! I fully believe!
A Genocide in the Making?
The Turkish government under the Erdoğan regime is undertaking a brutal crackdown against the participants of a civic group, namely the Gülen movement, also known as the Hizmet (service) movement, with the deliberate intention of destroying this social group, in whole or in part. In this extensive research, Dr. Keneş argues that this crackdown is filled with violations that may be classified at the very least as crimes against humanity and could very well be the harbinger of what comes next in terms of a full-scale genocide to exterminate thousands of innocent people. Keneş exemplifies many of these crimes and scales them against the genocide criteria according to definitions and norms accepted by United Nations and field experts. Given that the international community has historically downplayed the early signs of genocidal acts and thus failed to prevent such crimes many times before, it is necessary to be on the alert before the Erdoğan regime goes that far. A Genocide in the Making? is a unique volume that loudly cries out to the world this highly probable risk before it is too late.

Advocates of Silenced Turkey Report 2023
From 2016 to 2023, in the midst of the human rights crisis, numerous individuals fell victim to grief, stress, and illness. As of November 2023, we have documented 952 casualties attributed to the state of emergency (OHAL) and decree laws (KHK), which include 90 children. This encompasses suspicious deaths in prisons, those who took their own lives, and those who lost their lives while trying to flee Turkey across the Meric and Aegean, encountering denial to return to their home countries.

Advocates of Silenced Turkey Report 2022
When the Turkish President declared in an infamous speech that “Old Turkey no longer exists. This Turkey is new Turkey”, the story of Turkish authoritarianism had once and for all taken on a new character. Since July of 2016, the Turkish government has improperly imprisoned 160,000+homemakers, teachers, NGO workers, academics, judges, prosecutors and journalists. Once upon a time, the Republic of Turkey was lauded by insiders and outsiders for constituting a powerful model for democratization. In New Turkey, however, silence against the regime’s draconian laws, mass imprisonment, and frequent violations of universal human rights has become the norm. In a regime which ranks as the worst...
