Amazing work. I hope they carry the whole sentence to the very last day and not any early release funny business.
Such marriages should not happen at all! I hope that these two people will live out their term to the end, and it is desirable that the father be forbidden from having children.
From the other side of the border, fantastic sentence.
Glad they are not in EU
Religion is a crime against humanity.
You mean just like Islam’s prophet Muhammad who married 6 years old Aisha? Good thing Turkey only takes Islam seriously sometimes.
From a glorious city few centuries ago, now is like try to not get killed in traffic. Produces so much culture as it used to? No of course it is just an over populated city.
Why isn’t this news anywhere? If it was the taliban or iran it would be everywhere but because turkey is a friend of nato it geta a pass.
