土耳其打壓LGBTQ+團體,31人遭羈押候審、126名抗議者被拘留
伊斯坦堡,9月15日(路透社)——律師表示,土耳其當局週二在一項針對LGBTQ+團體的政府行動中,至少逮捕31人並羈押候審;同時,警方在安卡拉與伊斯坦堡爆發、反對近期突襲與逮捕行動的抗議期間,拘留至少126人。ISTANBUL, Sept 15 (Reuters) - Turkish authorities arrested at least 31 people pending trial on Tuesday as part of a government campaign targeting LGBTQ+ groups, while police detained at least 126 people during protests in Ankara and Istanbul against recent raids and arrests, lawyers said.
人權組織和反對派人士表示,當局對LGBTQ+社群的行動正在擴大,而這些逮捕是最新一次升高。過去一週,當局已在多個省分突襲協會辦公室、封鎖網站,並羈押嫌疑人。The arrests marked the latest escalation in what rights groups and opposition figures have described as a widening campaign against the LGBTQ+ community, with authorities over the past week raiding association offices, blocking websites and jailing suspects across multiple provinces.
律師表示,最新遭逮捕並羈押候審者包括安卡拉5名跨性別女性,以及南部梅爾辛省26人;其他遭拘留者的法律程序仍在進行。The latest arrests included five transgender women in Ankara and 26 people in the southern province of Mersin while legal processes continue for others detained, the lawyers said.
警方週二阻止一群人在伊斯坦堡一處法院外發表新聞聲明,並在首都安卡拉驅散試圖集結的支持LGBTQ+抗議者。Police prevented a group from making a press statement outside an Istanbul courthouse on Tuesday and dispersed pro-LGBTQ+ protesters in the capital Ankara as they attempted to gather.
在這些抗議之前,土耳其當局以一項名為「我的家庭很安全」的行動為由,在數個省分針對LGBTQ+協會發動大規模突襲,拘留數十人。政府稱,這項行動旨在保護兒童與家庭價值。The protests came after the authorities detained dozens in sweeping raids targeting LGBTQ+ associations in several Turkish provinces under an operation dubbed "My Family is Safe", which the government says is aimed at protecting children and family values.
歐洲理事會人權專員麥可・歐弗萊厄蒂(Michael O'Flaherty)週二表示,他對針對LGBTQ+公民社會與人權捍衛者的逮捕、突襲及網路限制感到關切。Council of Europe Commissioner for Human Rights Michael O'Flaherty said on Tuesday he was concerned by the arrests, raids and online restrictions targeting LGBTQ+ civil society and human rights defenders.
他表示,僅援引「家庭價值」或「保護兒童」本身,並不能合理化對人權的限制;他並呼籲釋放所有因人權或公民社會工作而遭拘留的人士。He said references to "family values" or the "protection of children" could not in themselves justify human rights restrictions, and called for the release of anyone detained for human rights or civil society work.
律師也表示,土耳其一座法院週一在西部伊茲密爾省,作為這項行動的一部分,裁定18人羈押候審。A Turkish court on Monday jailed 18 people pending trial in the western province of Izmir as part of the operation, the lawyers also said.
土耳其司法部長阿金・居爾萊克(Akin Gurlek)週日表示,這些調查由伊斯坦堡、安卡拉、伊茲密爾、艾登和梅爾辛的檢方協調,涉及15個省分的162名嫌疑人、9個協會及13家企業。Justice Minister Akin Gurlek said on Sunday the investigations, coordinated by prosecutors in Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Aydin and Mersin, involved 162 suspects, nine associations and 13 businesses across 15 provinces.
土耳其當局也封鎖了多個LGBTQ+協會、個人和獨立媒體機構所屬的網站與社群媒體帳號,包括國際特赦組織土耳其分會的X帳號。Turkish authorities have also blocked access to websites and social media accounts belonging to various LGBTQ+ associations, individuals and independent media outlets, including the X account of Amnesty International's Turkey branch.
