What He Said?What Happened?

Adnan Oktar: For instance according to a research conducted in 2006, every 26 minutes a  family violence was experienced in Turkey. This is a shame. Child abuse, WOMEN ABUSE, harrassment and family violence, rape in family and incest are the incidents that are taken to the legal authorities least. How shameful this is…According to a research carried out in Turkey, the dimensions of family violence is quite great. According to surveys, 57 percent of women in Turkey are subjected to physical violence while 47 percent are subjected to sexual violence. 8 percent are raped within the family. This is sheer disgrace. An utter vileness. Against this, A REASONABLE CUSTOM MUST BE DEVELOPED.

Special Bureau for Violence against Women

While violence against women are increasing every day, Ankara Chief Prosecutor of the Republic Ibrahim Ethem Kuris established a special bureau in order to prevent such incidents. Kuris authorized 2 prosecutors of the republic – 1 of them a woman- only to investigate the cases about woman violence. When needed, these prosecutors can request protection from family courts and open cases against those who do not abide by them.
