Sedef Kabas: Turkish journalist jailed for reciting proverb
A Turkish court has detained well-known journalist Sedef Kabas for allegedly insulting the country's president.
Ms Kabas was arrested on Saturday in Istanbul and a court ordered her to be jailed ahead of a trial.
She is accused of targeting President Recep Tayyip Erdogan with a proverb which she quoted on live television on an opposition-linked TV channel. She denies The Charge .
The Charge carries a prison sentence of between one and Four Years .
" There is a very famous proverb that says that a crowned head becomes wiser. But we see it is not true, " She Said on the Tele1 channel. " A bull does not become King Just by entering The Palace , but The Palace becomes a barn. "
She also later posted the quote on Twitter.
Mr Erdogan's Chief Spokesman Fahrettin Altun described her comments as " irresponsible".
" A so-called journalist is blatantly insulting Our President on a television channel that has no goal other than spreading hatred, " he wrote on Twitter.
In her court statement, Ms Kabas denied intending to insult The President .
Editor of the Tele1 channel Merdan Yanardag criticised Ms Kabas' arrest.
" Her detention overnight at 2am because of a proverb is unacceptable, " He Said . " This stance is an attempt to intimidate journalists, the media and society".
Mr Erdogan spent 11 years as Prime Minister before becoming the country's first directly-elected president in August 2014 - a supposedly ceremonial role.
His silencing of critics has caused alarm abroad, contributing to frosty relations with the EU, which has stalled Turkey's bid to join The Bloc .
Thousands of people have been charged with insulting Mr Erdogan since he became president.
In 2020 More Than 31,000 investigations related to The Charge were filed, Reuters news agency reports.
