Ladies,
Please be aware that this could happen ANYWHERE. Protect yourself by being aware of your surroundings (very hard to do in a strange place). If you are traveling alone, let someone know your itinerary. I travel alot for work and I always tell them at the front desk...I am going to XXX I will be back at XXX and I try to keep in touch with your family at least daily.

that is right BUT In other places the rapers are caught and punished right away. Whereas, in Turkey they are caught late and released easily. The punishments in Turkey are not dissuasive. For example, the police has announced that one of those 10 rapers had been caught before because of robbery and released. So, they were let free and then raped that American girl Is this law and justice?

If you do not want to be hurt in Turkey, please be cautious!

It really does not surprise me at all because it can happen ANYWHERE in the world . I heard about a similar case which happened to a teacher in Pakistan a few years ago which was EVEN worse and remember that in some parts of south africa virgin girls are raped because it is a cure against AIDS according to them!! :-S what a crazy world it is!!

May I say something different?

Turkish media is very famous about telling lies on news. I am not a big fan of that newspaper, maybe the news is true but if you noticed: there is no resource. Turkish media, especially some newspapers are not accredited. They have news without a little reality. You should look at resource for a good new, for example: AA(Anadolu Ajans- Anadolu Agency) is a reliable resource. And if you noticed, there is not much info about the girl or the other people (bad guys?).

Well, I am not sure about this information. Who knows... maybe it is totally lie..

this information is not true! it must be western journalists who made up the stories. esp bbc and cnn who rule behind all the worlds newspapers and info sources. western liars! they manipulate with such stories so that the whole world thinks bad on such countries, they destroy the holy reputation of holy nations. they wanted to spoil the kurban bayram atmosphere. its again a slap for arab and arab-related countries. these nations have great history, they had great empires which westerners didnt have (according to some smart "selfmade historians").

i dont believe this happent, its a huge lie! we can be proud of that our women are always respected and under a great protection (sometimes under burka), they protected in a way that such incidents do not take a place because women are kept home, safe and happy. there at home they enjoy the true freedom.
it happens only to american or european chicks who are not protected by coverings. who do not hide their weekness. no wonder shes raped!

cheese from al-jazeera!
