Free Sibel Balac – on hunger strike in Turkish Prison

Sibel Balac, a former teacher, was arrested by the Turkish regime solely because of her participation in democratic actions against the mass dismissals of her colleagues by emergency laws in 2016. She was sentenced to 8,5 years in prison without any legal basis.

She has been on hunger strike against this injustice since September 2021, and at the same time she is standing up for the rights of the other political prisoners.

The Political Prisoners Group/Internationalt Forum, Denmark, expresses our deep respect for the courage and steadfastness of Sibel Balac. At the same time we sharply condemn the reactionary Turkish regime for isa violation of the political rights of Sibel Balac and the population.
