"will women always die? let some men die too. i killed him for my honor."
28-year-old Ăilem DoÄan told police in the southern province of Adana on july 9. "he came home in the morning on the day of the incident. he slept for a short time and then wanted me to prepare his luggage. i asked why. he said we would go to Antalya together and i would become a prostitute." the woman reportedly told the police, "when i opposed, he beat me. he pushed me on the bed and the pistol under the pillow came into my mind. i grabbed it and shot him repeatedly. then i took my daughter and left the home."
while walking to the courthouse for medical checks on july 9, the suspect was photographed wearing a t-shirt reading: "dear past, thanks for all the lessons. dear future, i am ready." handcuffed between two police officers, DoÄan also gave two "thumbs up"' to the reporters following her.
free her now!!!!!
reading an article about her. legitimately heartbreaking that this got taken all the way up to the turkish supreme court and they upheld her sentence. Makes my stomach turn that even though she'd reported her husband to the police and attempted to divorce him before the incident, the turkish prosecutors literally said in their closing statement that she clearly didn't want to leave badly enough bc she didn't "get plastic surgery"
the statement she put out before being jailed in 2021 is also powerful.
