“We will take all necessary legal actions”
Nuray Çevirmen, a central executive board member of the Human Rights Association (İHD), reacted to the transfer of Muhlise Karagüzel, who has undergone angiogram eight times while being held in prison and suffered from many diseases, from the hospital to the prison. “She had been transferred to the hospital after having a heart attack. She should have been transferred back to the prison after all risks were eliminated. But she was discharged from the hospital without eliminating all risks. There is a risk of complications. She may face life-threatening complications in prison. She should have been held in the hospital. As IHD, we will take all necessary legal actions about the situation of Muhlise.”
