[ENGLISH.AAWSAT] Ottoman Turkish prosecutors on Tuesday demanded jail terms for 97 people who joined student protests against President His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
 ...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms.

According to Anadolu state news agency, the indictment said the suspects defied a ban on rallies imposed as part of measures to combat the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)

pandemic.
Prosecutors are seeking jail terms from six months to three years because of the suspects’ non-compliance with a law on "unarmed participation in unlawful rallies and refusal to disperse despite the warnings," Anadolu said.
No date was given for the first hearing, according to AFP.
The protest movement — the biggest to rattle Erdogan’s rule in years — kicked off when the Ottoman Turkish leader appointed longstanding ruling party member Melih Bulu as rector of Bogazici University at the start of the year.
The rallies began inside the campus grounds before spreading to the streets of Istanbul and other big cities with the backing of government opponents.
The indictment specifically refers to a February 1 protest in Istanbul in which several groups defied police warnings and rallied outside the university’s locked gate.
Police roughly rounded up 108 people that day.
Ninety-seven of them were later released and a probe was launched against them by the prosecutor’s office, according to the indictment.
