Scope and content
Original and supplementary statements of Şükran Aydın made to the European Commission of Human Rights as taken by the Diyarbakır Branch of the Human Rights Association. The first statement details her family's arrest and detainment and the sexual assault committed against her by three plainclothes officers. The second statement notes the harassment that Aydın has endured since applying to the Commission. Aydın states that her complaint has now been publicised in newspapers. She states that a few days after her release, she was married to a relative (Abidin Aydın) to whom she had been promised and soon became pregnant. Because of her damaged reputation, 'there are those who think that my child is not from my spouse.' Aydın also notes the psychological damage she has suffered as a result of the incident.
