Journalistic turkey because i. Think. Im. Going to. Hello im richard just put in youre watching a special edition of the listening post coming to you from istanbul last month turkeys president regift type air to one held a rare press briefing for journalists here in that meeting area once said that freedom of the press was of quote vital importance to him it was a statement that failed to square with the facts let alone the numbers because for each of the past 3 years ever since july of 2016 when an attempted coup failed to depose erda one turkey has imprisoned more journalists than any other country in the world in this program we will take you behind those numbers unraveling our complex and sometimes contradictory picture a story that well examine in 3 parts to begin with well look at the many journalists who have fled turkey to avoid ending up behind bars later the ironic flipside to that story how a country thats been described as a living hell by many of its own reporters has become a safe haven for journalists from other countries primarily arab ones who come here to work for fear of being jailed at home in between well get a perspective on the governments treatment of journalists including behavior that borders on the dictatorial. From one of president air to one stanchest supporters in the turkish news media but 1st a listening post flo phillips on journalists in exile part one. Just a few months before i was kicked out i was a already attracted a lot of attention by the government with my reporting back that. There was a arrest warrant against me we thought that they wouldnt come to the newspaper so i actually stayed in the newspaper overnight but they came to the nice effort and my editors were staying with me so they told me that i should flee from back door. I left turkey because of the prosecutions that has been brought against i had already been to jail for my journalism so this time i chose a different path. I was facing 20 to 25 years in jail my passport has been revoked yes i feel so like many refugees i got on a boat and crossed the marriage river to greece well to say when you understand english i published the story about the government of turkey who was trafficking to a neighboring country illegally. I found myself in jail 1st and then he makes. Of course leaving the country was the easy decision i left my hometown my family went to all my papers my library my dog. Everything my life. Left behind. But they knew that this is the price of being a journalist. John. Chad ash captured. Just 3. Among school is a turkish journalists now living in exile for the past few years the government of president has carried out an Aggressive Campaign monitoring targeting prosecuting and jailing reporters for some the situation became so dire that only option was to flee. With one of the most prominent newspaper editors in turkey he ranjan her at the countrys oldest daily center left paper that week team investigated and took home the ruling government for the past 3 years hes been living here in berlin he came here after spending time in a turkish prison for publishing a story that exposed illegal arms support weapons that the Turkish Intelligence Services were providing fighters in syria he was sentenced to almost 60 years behind bars and he decided that life in turkey was no longer an option. And. He couldnt deny the story because it was true but he said it was a state secret so true good for me you know i was getting a lot of threats by the government by the caller i was attacked in front of the court told. I saw someone coming to me. He called me the traitor so you were convicted for revealing state secrets but you pleaded innocent and were appealing the decision why didnt you stay in the country to play on day because. I lost trust in truth the sri. Or to the military coup attempt. Of going to change the whole system the 1st thing he has done was to arrest the high judges who decided for a release so they are still in jail adult independent justice really cant defend yourself so death will be in. Putting my hat into the computer. On july 15th 2016 a fraction of the turkish army attempted a coup it was a spectacular. Using some of the very Media Outlets hes been attacking the other one running Popular Support stopping the coup in its tracks. On. The government pin the blame on the gunas movement forces loyal to the islamist cleric photo cooling a one time ally turned and. The event was a watershed moment in the countrys history and for the media it marked a Seismic Shift in them for. Within 2 weeks more than 100 Media Outlets had been shut down and in the years since those considered inconvenient to the government have been taken over by over one allies while journalists critical of his policies have been systematically rounded up and imprisoned. One of the media houses forced to close with zama a company widely seen as close to the good in his Movement Magazine a lot of work to zam an english language newspaper todays emma but his struggle with the government had started well before the coup on 25th of december 2 dozen 13 i wrote an article about the Corruption Case which targeted president so when i wrote that story all hell broke loose for me one of the. Just published my picture just saying that turkey beware of this traitor and on that they present are due on pressed charges against me thinking after 6 years in prison why do you think the government and other one specifically took such extreme measures. There are some red lines that you should not cross one of them is undoubtedly corruption investigations that target the present iraq and the other thing is the military coup attempt you cannot question it theres also the kurdish issue there are over 60 journalist. Deported from the country and most that most of them or kicked out of expelled from the country just because they wrote about kurdish issue kurdish conflict. The battle in the southeast of the country between turkey and kurdish insurgents demanding equal rights no tommy. Has lasted more than 40 years the leading Insurgent Group classified as a terrorist out there. Is the Kurdistan Workers Party on the p. K. K. The group its leaders and its message are all red line issues covering human rights abuses by Turkish Forces is fraught with challenges and kurdish language media operate under significant restrictions. Chadash kaplan was one of 32 kurdish journalists arrested back in 2011 for him the most dispiriting thing was not so much his arrest but the lack of support and solidarity from his fellow journalists. The journalists who didnt speak up for the kurdish media back then today they are the ones being victimized i hope my colleagues dont mind my criticisms because i criticize them on any platform for example zemo newspaper when the man was shot down i defended them and said it was illegal but when i was arrested in 2011 men labeled me oppressed terrorist. Hes absolutely right and i think. Yesterday and today failed to support those causes and thats the tragedy. Is that the victim does not support the other victims and kurds have always been alone in this fight. Theyre not alone anymore all 3 of these exiled journalists have been classed as quote terrorists by the turkish state we contacted various representatives of the government requesting interviews however none of the officials agreed to speak with us. From their homes in athens washington d. C. And berlin kept plans in a lab and continue with their journalism it hasnt been an easy journey particularly so. What sort of pressure or intimidation you continue to feel both from the turkish government but also from the pro i dont want supporters living here in germany. 8 and theyre a little for a dog fanatics around and they are trying to intimidate and theres an. Intelligence. To this here i guess there are informants among the society another one himself came to germany and called you out is that right. There. You show it to believe he has from government to give me back to turkey well things got German Government knows what whats going on in taking. Some of turkeys exile journalists those goings on and living hell one in which the ability to report freedom to hold power to account and to expect process seems all but dead and buried. Freedom of the press in this country has been buried in a big grave bio leaders not just by it we have to fight for it just like our other rights because we have the power to dig up these fundamental rights from the grave but we can only do that by resisting otherwise its impossible. We wanted to get the urge to want governments response to some of the allegations made by saying a lot and kept. An alist the turkish state caused terrorists we requested interviews with a number of senior state officials including the president s director of communications his Spokes Person and his special advisor none of them agreed to speak. So we asked for an interview with jim and aired on a loyalist and a prominent face on the privately owned t. V. Channel t g r t. Agree with strict conditions he said he did not want to answer any questions about the turkish governments handling of specific journalists in particular the exiled reporters we interviewed he said our questions would be better answered by a representative of the state he did however defend certain other statements about the media made by president heir to one and some of his close
