&Woman Who Killed Husband After Years of Abuse Wins Freedom in Landmark qSelf-Defense Ruling.
BY BRENDAN COLE
A court in Turkey has ruled that a woman who killed her husband had been acting in self-s, in a verdict that has been welcomed by a women’s rights group.
A court in Antalya heard harrowing testimony via video link from Melek Ipek, 31, about how she had been regularly beaten by her husband Ramazan Ipek, 36, throughout their 12-year marriage.
In her account in the indictment, she described how on January 6 this year, she had been handcuffed by her husband who hit her with a rifle butt and threatened to kill her and their daughters, aged nine and seven, The New York Times reported.
When she called police, she had prominent injuries on her face and body but she was still detained and subsequently charged for murder, sparking outrage among right’s groups which have sounded the alarm about domestic abuse in the country.
On Tuesday, the court ruled that despite the case against her for the “deliberate killing of her spouse under unjust provocation,” she had been acting “in defense against an attack on her life, bodily integrity and sexual freedom,” news outlet Bianet reported.

BZ to the court for doing the right thing. I think I had it drummed into my head (or butt) at about age 4 that men don’t hit women…period! And threatening to kill his children too? Hope this mofo is enjoying that Barbed Co@k of Satan. BZ to her for taking out the trash.
What!?! No gun pr0n? Give an accounting of your self! Let me be the FIRST to Bitch AND Moan over the lack thereof. (did you expect any different?) Speaking of FIRST, PAY ATTENTION…Today IS Friday and the TAH WOT will drop at some point in time. For all the whiners and bellyachers 😉 the KoB, King of First will be going dark and off the net for the weekend. I will not be monitoring to see who grabs the Coveted EARNED NEVER GIVEN Title of FIRST. Good luck and may the best deplorable win.
See y’all about Monday. Smooches (ht 2 ChipNASA)
Amazing to hear such a result from a court in Turkey. Edrogan has gone of the deep end when it comes to human rights lately. very surprising he would allow such a decision.
Lol at a “court” in that neck of the woods saying anything about “sexual freedom”.
