Lawyers not given preliminary autopsy report on ill prisoner Halil Güneş
The preliminary autopsy report on ill prisoner Halil Güneş was not given to his lawyers.
The preliminary autopsy report on ill prisoner Halil Güneş was not given to his lawyers.
Halil Güneş, who was on the ill prisoners list of the Human Rights Association (IHD) and was not released despite all calls, was found dead in his isolation cell in Diyarbakır High Security Prison No. 2 on Wednesday morning.
After the body of Güneş was taken to the Forensic Medicine Institute (ATK) in Amed, it was finally sent off to be buried in Adana.
It was learned that Güneş's preliminary autopsy report was not delivered to the lawyers, who were told that it was "being redacted".
Lawyer Yusuf Çakas, one of the administrators of MED TUHAD-FED, said that Güneş allegedly died at 8.34 on Wednesday morning, and then the infirmary and the prosecutor's office were informed.
Çakas said: "In the interview held in the prison, it was said that Güneş's cell was checked by the security camera until 3 am and Güneş was turning left and right in bed until that hour. The prison staff, seeing the prisoner moving, thought that he was fine and when, after 3 am, he stopped moving, they thought he was asleep.
Çakas added: "It is not normal at all for an ill prisoner who has been left in isolation for 5 days to turn in his bed until 3 am. If a patient turns in this way late at night, it means that he is in pain or has a problem."
