Gülenist suspects to wear ‘single-type’ brown uniforms in Turkish courts

All suspected members of the Fethullahist Terrorist Organization (FETÖ) under arrest will have to wear “single-type” brown uniforms during court appearances, according to a change planned by the Justice Ministry, state-run Anadolu Agency reported on Aug. 4.

The move to make all FETÖ suspects wear the same clothes in court came after a suspect stirred debate by appearing before a judge last month wearing a t-shirt that read “hero.” A number of other people were then detained by police across Turkey for wearing t-shirts with the “hero” design.
