UN human rights experts have called on Türkiye to end its “My Family Is Safe” operation and release people detained solely for legitimate human rights work.
In a statement dated 13 October, the experts said at least 44 rights defenders had reportedly been detained or arrested since 12 September. They called for access to healthcare, medication and legal counsel for those still in detention.
The experts also said rights groups should be able to seek, receive and use funding. They urged authorities to let LGBTI and HIV-related organisations continue their legitimate work.
Türkiye’s Justice Ministry set out a different account on 13 September. It described the operation as part of efforts to protect children, families and public order, and said prosecutors were coordinating judicial measures across several provinces.
The experts said they were in contact with the government about the issue.
