Legal proceedings against Protestants in Turkey are intensifying, with a stack of arbitrary legal cases piling up against members of this tiny community in the predominantly Muslim country.
On March 9, The Sunday Times ran a report detailing the situation of foreign Protestants in Turkey who have lived there for decades. The newspaper spoke to five couples who described, in similar detail, how they would be informed by the authorities that they were under suspicion and sometimes be barred from returning to their homes.
Last month, International Christian Concern, a non-profit organisation, released a report that documented the discrimination faced by Protestant Christians in Turkey that included deportations, entry bans, and surveillance by Turkish intelligence.
