Abortion
Women seeking an abortion in Turkey face considerable danger and many hurdles. While the procedure is legal, experts say in reality there is a de facto ban, believed to be orchestrated by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. “I thought I’d go to some sort of hospital. But instead, it was an apartment on the second floor of a three-story building. A man with a cigarette in hand opened the door. I entered an apartment with a living room and kitchen. The bathroom in what apparently was the parents’ bedroom had been converted into an abortion room. The operating table was filthy and covered in blood.” Horror takes hold of Gul as she describes the place in Istanbul’s Alibeykoy district where she went to have her pregnancy terminated. What she encountered was one of Turkey’s illegal abortion clinics, often housed in converted apartments despite the procedure being legal in Turkey.
Turkish law states: “Until the end of the tenth week of pregnancy, as long as there are no concerns for the mother’s health, an abortion can be performed out at her request.” It also stipulates that in exceptional cases, terminations can be carried out until the twentieth week of pregnancy. But in reality, the situation is very different.
