When a purge-victim judge couple finally got to see eachother and their daughter after almost 29 months in pre-trial detention, cameras were rolling, and so were the tears.
Neslihan Ekici, an expelled judge and the former secretary-general of Turkey’s top judicial body, and her husband Hüseyin Ekinci, who is also an expelled judge and a former rapporteur of Turkey’s Constitutional Court were releaed from prison on Tuesday night after spending 28 months and four months in solitary confinement on coup charges.
Their “unexpected” reunion was captured on camera and the result is, well, pretty darn emotional:

Both Neslihan Ekinci and Hüseyin Ekinci were initially fired from their jobs and then put in pre-trial detention days after the July 15 coup attempt. According to their daughter, Rana, Mrs Ekinci had been held in solitary confinement for over 20 months and thus has suffered from serious mental and physical disorders as a result of her months-long isolation. “My mother is losing her mental health in solitary confinement,” Rana once tweeted.
