Erdogan government withdraws child abuse bill which aims to free inhuman child rapers due to unrest in Turkish society

“This commission will evaluate and take into account all sides and surely a solution will be found,” the prime minister added.

In comments overnight, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan had called for a compromise to be found on the bill.

The bill’s withdrawal marks a rare concession to popular opposition by the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP).

Co-founded by Erdogan, the AKP has dominated Turkish politics since coming to power in 2002.
