The murder and disfigurement of a 20-year-old woman in southern Turkey has prompted nationwide protests. Demonstrators have chanted the victim\u2019s name, Ozgecan Aslan, and claimed that Turkey is becoming increasingly misogynistic. They point to growing reports of violence against women and restricted access to abortion. Hundreds of thousands of women have tweeted #sendeandat \u2013 'tell your story' in Turkish - to share their experiences of abuse. The powerful president, Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan, says that violence against women is the \u201cbleeding wound\u201d of Turkey. But he has also said that women are \u201cnot equal\u201d to men. So, is it life getting worse for woman in Turkey? Expert witnesses include a leading Turkish feminist and a member of the governing AK party.
