    #Turkey election board says officials removed by decree can’t stay in office, thereby stripping 4 HDP mayors-elect of positions (in Diyarbakir and Van). All are given to runner-up which is, of course, AKP. So they were allowed to run in election but when they won they can’t servehttps://twitter.com/cumhuriyetgzt/status/1116055124818976779 …

        This is a civil rights violation in an epic scale. In fact, the decision is so gross, it is a beauty in a perverse way. It deserves a special chapter in the chronicles of authoritarian regimes.

        Does not come as a surprise regarding every survey result stating the fact that the least trusted element at the moment is Turkish law system.
