Turkish editor abducted and beaten by police

Sinan Tekpetek, the editor of a Turkish newspaper, Yüzde 52 Ofke (52% of Anger), was abducted and beaten by two Istanbul policemen. Two ribs were broken. "I can imagine only two explanations for this attack", he said after treatment in hospital. It could be linked to his work as a journalist or because, in 2005, he gave evidence against two plain-clothes policemen who mistreated a suspect. (Via Reporters without Borders)
