15:57 ¢ 10.11.13
A Turkish governor was heard and also caught on camera cursing a
citizen who was protesting against him and had called on him to
resign, during a commemoration ceremony on Nov. 10 in the southern
province of Adana, The Hurriyet Daily News reports.
Adana Gov. Hüseyin Avni CoÅ?, who recently made the news with his
remarks on the co-ed housing debate, cursed the man who was among
dozens of protesters before the cameras by saying `Take that p*mp who
told me God damn you.'
`I'll talk to you later,' Gov. CoÅ? told the man in a threatening way
before getting into his car.
He waved at the crowd despite protest whistles by a group of people
after the commemoration ceremony held for the 75th anniversary of the
death of the founder of the Republic of Turkey Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.
Soon after the car began moving, Gov. CoÅ? left the car and moved
toward the man he targeted by ordering his guards to detain him.
A scuffle erupted between the protesters and the governors' bodyguards
for a while.
Gov. CoÅ? voiced his support for Prime Minister ErdoÄ?an's condemnation
of female and male students' living under one roof, showing his
loyalty to him by saying he considered the prime minister's statements
like orders.
