Büşra Yılmaztürk: Survival in a Lawless Land

Introduction

On 15 July 2016, Turkey experienced a violent coup that became a significant turning point in its political history. President Erdogan placed the blame for the coup on the Hizmet movement, a faith-inspired civic organization led by Fethullah Gülen, a Muslim scholar and spiritual leader based in Pennsylvania. The followers of this particular movement, settled in different parts of the globe with the intention of building schools and spreading peace around the world, were accused of being terrorists and harboring hostility towards the Turkish government. Although the allegations of parallel state-building were unfounded, the Turkish government initiated a process of arresting and imprisoning members of the Hizmet movement in the absence of any legal proof or evidence.

SILENT SCREAM: True Stories of Oppression in Turkey

“The three true stories in this book are about the three of the countless brave women in Turkey who fought against extreme and systemic political injustice and oppression, who did everything they could to protect their families and took enormous risks in pursuit of their quest for freedom.”


SILENT SCREAM:

You will burst into tears when you read how a young woman had to give birth in a janitor’s small apartment without making any single sound, and what happened then to the newborn baby in the land of oppression.

ANGELS OF THE AEGEAN SEA:
On that night, the Aegean Sea has become the grave of many innocent lives. One woman, even though she didn’t know how to swim, has survived. But unfortunately, it was in her destiny to witness the last minutes of her husband and her two tiny babies that she was holding in her arms. Meanwhile, the conscience of humanity was silent!

FOR GOD’S SAKE, JUST SHOOT ME!:
After finding herself in prison without any evidence of a crime, the young woman had a severe nervous breakdown because she was unable to bear the separation from her two little children. When the head guard in prison threatened her with sending her to a mental hospital, she never shed a tear again.

ESCAPE FROM TURKEY

You know how it goes in fairy tales… The dark sorcerer who gets angry at the prince uses magic to turn him into a frog. The frog-turned-prince cannot talk anymore, so only a miracle can save him now. This is pretty much what happened to the volunteers of the Hizmet Movement. Using a staged fake coup, the patriots of this country were framed in just one night as traitors by the evil corrupt political power and their names were added into the lists of torture and death. All their properties have been seized and they were left no other choice but to escape from their homeland.

What you will read below are the true stories of the Hizmet volunteers, one of them is a past lawyer of Bank Asya and the other is a distinguished scientist. You will witness how their lives have been taken from them after that ominous night of coup and how they fought back to save their families from evil.

The only difference between these stories and those fairy tales is that… Everything in this story is true!
