                                      Prison toilets await. 

Social media phenomenon Mika CanRaun posted a video showing herself 
throwing a 100 TL banknote into a toilet ($1 = 1,850 TL).  In response to 
criticism, Raun said "Is it a crime to donate 100 TL to our beautiful 
country's sewer system?!"   In any case, Raun was taken into custody 
by police on 24 October and then released.  

However (!), the public prosecutor prepared an indictment against
her, noting that the banknote carried the picture of Turkey's founder
Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, as well as the Turkish flag, so throwing said
banknote into the toilet constituted an insult to both.  The prosecutor
asked the court for a jail sentence of from 2.5 years to 7.5 years for 
Raun.  After the court accepts the indictment, Raun's trial will begin. 









                            No restroom for the wicked.
