News Center - Garibe Gezer was taken into custody in Mardin’s Nusaybin district in 2016 and then sent to prison. Her dead body was found in her solitary confinement in the Kandıra Prison on December 9, 2021 after she was raped and tortured. Several days ago, the Kandıra Prosecution Office decided not to prosecute her death on the grounds of “there is not enough evidence”. Jinnews, an all-women news agency based in Turkey, has released a footage showing Garibe Gezer was tortured and beaten by the prison guards.

In the video, Garibe Gezer screams while being dragged on the floor by many prison guards.

Her lawyers will apply to the ECHR

Yesterday, Garibe Gezer’s lawyers Eren Keskin, Jiyan Kaya, Jiyan Tosun and Elif Taşdöğen announced that they would apply to the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) after the decision of the Kandıra Prosecution Office.
