Gay rights websites filtered

Turkish MPs must file written applications if they wish to visit the websites of gay rights organisations Kaos GL and Lambda Istanbul.

MPs who try to visit the sites are redirected to a warning about homosexual content and directed to “fill out the appropriate form if you need [access] for your work”.

Kaos GL coordinator Ali Erol said it was scandalous that MPs were unable to access the website of a legal association established in the Turkish Republic.

‘Homosexuality’ is on a banned list on Parliament’s internet filter which also includes ‘pornography’ and ‘gambling’.
