Uzbek man who took photos of a foreign woman without permission is being deported from Turkey

An Uzbek man who took photos of a woman without permission in Turkey will be deported. On April 13, an Uzbek citizen took photos of a Turkish woman without permission in the Istanbul metro. The woman then complained to law enforcement agencies about this and the citizen was detained. His work permit in Turkey has been revoked, and administrative penalties and mandatory deportation measures are being taken against him. As a result of the intervention of the Consulate General, non-criminal measures were taken against this citizen.

❗️The Consulate General reminded Uzbeks that taking photos of foreigners, especially women, without permission in Turkey is prohibited by law, and called on them to comply with Turkish laws.
