INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT

Despite the fact that Turkey does not recognize the Rome Statute, the Turkey Tribunal continues the preparations to present a comprehensive report to the ICC in early 2022, considering the fact that the ICC's jurisdiction is established in terms of crimes such as enforced disappearance, imprisonment, and torture committed by state officials affiliated with the Erdogan regime in countries party to the Statute

MAGNITSKY ACT

Turkey Tribunal also plans to use as an option to mobilize global sanctions regimes for human rights violations, such as the Global Magnitsky Law adopted in the USA in 2016 and the Global Human Rights Sanction Regime (EUGHRSR) adopted by the EU in December 2020

UNIVERSAL JURISDICTION

Turkey Tribunal also continues its research and studies under the Universal Jurisdiction, which means that a state initiates criminal proceedings in relation to certain serious crimes, regardless of the nationality of the perpetrator or victim, and regardless of where the crime was committed.

Turkey Tribunal started this petition to Recep Tayyip Erdoğan (President of Republic of Turkey) and Bekir Bozdağ (Justice Minister)

We therefore ask the AKP government to stop mass arrests and end all other human rights violations and not to further compromise democracy, justice and the rule of law.

We invite everybody who shares our concerns to take action to help stop mass arrests and other violations of law carried out by the Turkish government under the pretext of fighting terrorism which interfere with human rights and freedoms. Please answer our call!

STOP MASS DETENTIONS!

The mission of the Turkey Tribunal is to assess and report in an independent and professional manner, based on the standards and principles elaborated by other international courts and tribunals and drawing on the experience of the best practices of national courts, all allegations of human rights violations taking place under the jurisdiction of Turkish authorities.

All documents and the testimonials of the judges will be published in full transparency through modern digital means of communication.

In recent years, human rights violations have increasingly been reported in Turkey. Various international bodies and courts have confirmed this, sometimes even in very sharp terms.
