 Yasemin Congar is a longtime friend and colleague of Ahmet Altan. They worked together at the liberal newspaper Taraf. In fact, there are joint charges against the two of them that are still pending. Ahmet Altan once wrote, The only people in Turkey who live without the fear of being arrested are the people in jail. Do you have fear yourself that someday you're going to get a knock at dawn on your door?
