Sabri Kaya, a sick prisoner at Osmaniye T Type 2 Closed Prison, suffered a stroke and brain hemorrhage on the morning of 25 March.

Kaya, who is being treated at Osmaniye State Hospital, has been in intensive care for 3 days. Kaya's daughter Dilan Kaya stated that her father suffered the stroke because the prison administration stopped providing a medicine called Coumadin, for a month. On top of the stroke Kaya said that her father suffered a brain hemorrhage.

Doctors told Dilan Kaya that "all the organs have been damaged due to the stroke he had. He will remain in intensive care for a while. First we have to deal with the heart and then we will deal with the brain-related surgery."

Reminding that her father has been in prison since 2010 serving a life sentence Kaya added that he already undewent two heart surgeries. She added that her father sentence was suspended for 3 months due to his health condition in 2013, but then he was arrested again as the medical report issued by the Istanbul Forensic Medicine Institute claimed he had no "chronic disease".

Kaya said: "Those prisoners who are seriously ill like my father should be released. Treatments should be made in equipped hospitals and families should be allowed to visit them regularly."

Kaya criticised the 3rd Judicial Package which allegedly includes sentence discount arrangements only for certain groups of prisoners and warned that if ill prisoners are not released soon news of death will come.
