Paris/Brussels: Terrorism investigation started after woman flees marriage

A young Turk who was supposedly abducted in France on December 7th by the PKK is actually in Brussels, where she escaped a violent husband.

The lawyer of Cemile Demir (23), Olivier Stein, is surprised at the speed with which the French authorities, he says, classified this case as terrorism.

Stein informed the Belgian police, who interrogated the young woman at the request of the French court.  The young woman confirms that she fled because her father, who lives in the Parisian suburbs, wanted her to live in Turkey with a cousin with whom she was forcibly religiously married and who beat her.

On December 11 media reported the launching of an abduction investigation by the the anti-terrorism court of Paris, of a young Turkish woman by two people connected to the PKK, on December 7 near the French capital.
