Turkey charges Amnesty chief Taner Kilic with coup links

The head of Amnesty International in Turkey has been charged with membership of a terrorist organisation and remanded in custody pending trial, the group has said.

Taner Kilic was detained on Tuesday in the province of Izmir along with 22 other lawyers. The arrests were part of a crackdown following last July's failed coup attempt. Amnesty called the charges "a mockery of justice". [...] Amnesty has been a vocal critic of the crackdown on suspected coup plotters. It said last year it had "credible reports" of detainees being subjected to "beatings and torture, including rape".
