Clashes In Turkey Over Magazine Cartoon Allegedly Depicting Prophet Muhammad | Spotlight | N18G

In Istanbul, clashes erupted after the country’s chief prosecutor ordered the arrest of editors of the LeMan magazine. This was ordered on grounds that the magazine published a cartoon that “publicly insulted religious values”. LeMan’s editor-in-chief says the cartoon was misinterpreted. As the news broke and the image went viral on social media, several protesters stormed LeMan’s office in Central Istanbul and also attacked a bar frequently visited by the magazine’s staff. The country’s Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya said the cartoonist and three other staffers responsible for the cartoon have been arrested. Several other employees have been named on the arrest warrant.
