“A Turkish teenager who was arrested at his school on Wednesday for allegedly insulting President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has been released from police custody.
The 16-year-old was met by his parents. His mother said: “I’m not ashamed of my son.”
The boy, who has not been named because of Turkish laws that protect the identity of minors, remained defiant.
“We are not terrorists. We gave a promise while taking this path. We said we won’t give up. We said we won’t submit to fascist, hardline oppression.”
