On 12. or 13. 10. 2017 (depending on how you count), it is 100 days since the arrest of the Istanbul10 on 5th July 2017. For solidarity actions on those days, you can find a small flyer here. It contains basic information and the possibility to be in touch. You can easily print it, cut it, and distribute it. We are looking forward to news about your actions!

Today, three months ago ten human rights defenders were arrested in Turkey. the campaign “Free Istanbul10” has now developed a new framework for action.

Peter Steudtner, our long-time friend and colleague, is in detention since 5th of July 2017. After consulting with his lawyers we are now publishing his so far four open letters.

Last Sunday some people ran the Berlin Marthon for the Istanbul10. Simultaneously Peter Steudtner, who is in unjustified detention since 5th of July 2017, ran in a small yard outside of his prison cell.

We congratulate our Partner in Belgrad and Sarajevo.
