NEWSDESK, — The Kurdish child prisoners who had been sexually abused in Pozanti prison had been transferred to the Sincan Prison where they are subjected to torture and persecution.
Ş.U. and M.K., both jailed under the Anti-Terror Law (TMK), told the BDP members that they were beaten and closed to cells upon arrival. A child inmate’s finger was broken after a clash with the wardens. The child was not sent to the infirmary.
The children also said that the prison’s prosecutor told them to take back their criminal complaints about the sexual abuse incidents in the Pozanti Prison and threatened them with maltreatment.
“The wardens tell us not to say anything about what is happening in the prison and say that this prison will be worse than Pozanti if we do not obey,” said the children.
The BDP members also learned that children were given only one blanket and could not sleep due to the cold at night. A report will be prepared by the BDP commission in the next days.
