Vildan Yirmibesoglu, an attorney and director of the Istanbul Governorship's Human Rights Board, tells SETimes that "until recently, political authorities thought that violence against women was exaggerated and only involved individual cases," adding that recent initiatives show positive change.
Vildan Jirmibesoglu, advokat i direktor Odbora za ljudska prava Istanbulske gubernije, kaže za SETimes da su „do nedavno, političke vlasti smatrali da su podaci o nasilju nad ženama naduvani i da je reč samo o izolovanim slučajevima“, dodajući da najnovije inicijative pokazuju pozitivne promene.
