Freedom of (pummeling) the press.
In Balıkesir's Burhaniye district on 19 November at around
2200 hours, Hasan Bayram, who was elected as a member of
the district's council in the 31 March elections from the CHP
party, went to a restaurant and attacked journalist Hakan
Sataroğlu, the owner of the ZeytinEfe newspaper, smashing
a bottle into Sataroğlu's head.
Bayram then grabbed Sataroğlu by the back of his neck and
dragged him onto the floor, kicking him while he was down.
Police arrived and had Sataroğlu taken to a hospital for
treatment. As for Bayram, he was released after giving a
statement to police (!).
The origin of the problem between the two was, evidently,
that Sataroğlu was looking into the matter of a municipal
café on the shore having been given over to Bayram to run.
