Turkish security police continue to detain and arrest anit-govenrment protesters in what many lawyers call witch-hunt for people with any links to the Gezi protests. Since late May, the protesters have been calling for the downfall of the ruling AK Party led by Prime Minister Raccip Tayyip Erdogan.
The association of photographers says over one hundred photographers have been detained, or badly beaten as well. They have also had their photos erased by the police during the demos in Istanbul and Ankara. One photographer who accepted to talk to us on condition of anonymity says he had a yellow press ID card when the police attacked him.
