9798257744396: INCOMPATIBLE WITH HUMAN DIGNITY: A 2025 REPORT ON SYSTEMIC RIGHTS VIOLATIONS AGAINST ILL AND ELDERLY AND OTHER VULNERABLE PRISONERS PRISONERS IN TÜRKİYE

Synopsis

This report documents systemic and grave human rights violations affecting ill, elderly, disabled, and other vulnerable persons deprived of liberty in Türkiye, including pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding inmates. Based on qualitative evidence—including testimonies of former inmates, ward-mates, and relatives, and letters, memoirs, and documented accounts—the report demonstrates that violations begin at the custody stage and persist throughout incarceration and hospital referral pathways. The findings establish a structural breach of the right to life, right to health, and the absolute prohibition of torture and ill-treatment, indicating not exceptional failures but entrenched institutional practice.
