Kassationsretten skulle i juli 1986 have forelagt parlamentet 91 dødsstraffe til stadforstelse, og den tyrkiske justitsministers erklæring om, at man under de nuværende omstændigheder ikke kan opgive dødsstraffen i Tyrkiet, lover ikke godt.
The Appeals Court is said to have submitted 91 death sentences to Parliament in July 1986 for its approval, and the statement by the Turkish Minister of Justice that in the present circumstances the death penalty cannot be abolished in Turkey does not augur well either.
