CCBE Statement on the situation of the legal profession in Turkey

15.12.2020 | Tiedotteet

The CCBE urges the Turkish authorities to uphold the rule of law by bringing an end to the persecution of lawyers and by refraining from taking any measure which would have the effect of hindering the independence, integrity and freedom of expression of the legal profession in Turkey. All lawyers who have been unduly detained for carrying out their professional activities should be immediately released.
