Edirne 6th Criminal Court of First Instance sentenced vocal artist Saide İnaç, publicly known as Hozan Cane, to 1 year and five months of imprisonment due to “insulting the President.” The announcement of the verdict against the artist, charged due to her social media post, was deferred. İnaç is a German citizen and has previously been arrested before the elections on June 24, 2018 in Edirne, where she was visiting within the electoral campaigns of the People’s Democratic Party (HDP), with the allegation of “illegal organisation membership.” The artist was sentenced to 6 years and three months of imprisonment within this file and is still in prison.
