Detention Decision for Baseless Social Media Post in Tatvan
The page administrator who spread baseless allegations of sexual assault and death targeting a 12-year-old child on social media in the Tatvan district of Bitlis has been detained.
A detention decision has been issued against the page administrator due to a baseless social media post containing allegations of sexual assault and death targeting a 12-year-old girl in the Tatvan district of Bitlis.
Posts were made from a social media account named "Tatvan page" in the Tatvan district of Bitlis claiming that a 12-year-old girl had been sexually assaulted and had lost her life. It was determined that these allegations did not reflect the truth and were misleading to the public.
As a result of the investigation launched by the Tatvan Chief Public Prosecutor's Office, a detention decision was issued against the page administrator who spread the baseless information on charges of "publicly disseminating misleading information." Authorities drew attention to the fact that unverified information, especially on sensitive issues concerning children, should not be shared on social media.
