Excerpt: Those detained on September 18 included Nurseli Idiz, one of
Turkey's leading actresses, and a transsexual showbiz manager and
function organizer called Seyhan Soylu ... were released on September
21 without being charged.

No one seriously believes that Idiz and Soylu were actively involved
in what the court indictment describes as a "terrorist organization."
Their main offence appears to have been that both were outspoken
opponents of the AKP.
