This post will be updated with pictures clearly showing excessive police brutality against protesters in turkey. Warning: violent content! Personally I really hope, that justice will be brought to the people of turkey. Escecially to all those brave protestors demanding their rights and seeking for freedom. The cruel fact, that such a movement is beeing suppressed by brutal government crackdown, is not acceptable. Therefore know.your.system feels a need to collect evidence of those crimes, while asking all mankind to stand up in solidarity with the turkish people.

Major news portals reported today, that police started arresting twitter users for allegedly spreading 'misinformation' using social media to call for protest. Guardian.co.uk reffered to 25 individuals beeing arrested on Wednesday in Izmir accused of using Twitter and social media to stoke anti-government sentiment during protests!

On twitter Voice of Turkey reports of Ethem Sarisuluk supposedly beeing shot by police June 2nd, now died. Doctors claimed him brain dead. This will not be forgotten - our deepest condolences...

BREAKING--- ISTANBULETHEM SARISULUK DIED AFTER POLICE BULLET TO HIS HEAD IN ISTANBUL ON JUNE 2-- twitter.com/VOT99/status/3…

The picture below is showing Ankara riot police on the streets. Pay attention to their helmets - you can clearly see, how they covered their ID numbers on the back of their helmets! Considering the crimes they are committing - no surprise there!!!
Others show police forces targeting watercannons, pepper spray and chemicals directly in the face of unarmed protesters. Kicking defenseless people on the ground beeing outnumbered 1:10. Teargas canisters are beeing fired on the people and police again aiming for the head - this can have lethal effect.

 

 

Another video from Ankara showing a police attack without any reason.
