Time for Strasbourg to Open its Doors to Turkey’s Purged Public Servants

On Verfassungsblog Dr. Alice Donald writes on the desolate human rights landscape in Turkey. More than 130,000 public sector employees, including judges, prosecutors, teachers, doctors, police officers and academics, were subject to collective, arbitrary dismissal due to unsubstantiated links to organisations considered to be “terrorist”. Concerns abound about the erosion of judicial independence and the “unwarranted and abusive targeting of lawyers for prosecution”.
