Prominent Turkish journalist appears before court over alleged threats to Erdogan
- A Turkish journalist, Fatih Altayli, appeared in court to defend himself against allegations of threatening President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, which critics see as an attempt to silence dissenting voices against the government.
- Altayli, who has been detained since June, is charged with issuing and publicly disseminating a threat against Erdogan.
- During the hearing, Altayli denied the accusation, stating, 'I have never threatened a single person, whether weaker or stronger than me.'
- The charges were linked to a comment he made regarding a poll showing over 70% of the public opposing a lifetime presidency for Erdogan, as reported by the Turkish Journalists Syndicate.
