Turkey removes legal age for sex.

Recommended Posts

So this is bat-shit insane!! How could that possibly go wrong? How on earth could the court be split on this? 7 - 6 in favour of sexual abuse.

 

Quote

The Constitutional Court has ruled to annul a provision that punishes all sexual acts against children under the age of 15 as “sexual abuse,”

This decision will lead to unwanted marriages. People will be able to kidnap and rape children, marry them at an early age, and prevent them from going to school

Seems to be some confusion over what is actually happening. It's certainly true that Turkey is getting grumpy with Austria over the reporting of this too.

 

Normally I'd prefer to read the original decision before jumping to conclusions, but that might be difficult in this case (for me at least). On the face of it, based on what the Hurriyet Daily reported, that's pretty bad.
