Freelance reporter Eylem Emel Yıldız, who works for institutions such as Al-Monitor and Yeşil Gazete also announced that she was harassed. “There is a pervert who is harassing me from everywhere he can find, from social media to my number. Blocking does not stop him. Today he harassed me again from another number. I will file a criminal complaint but while no action is taken even against death threats I do not know what will be done about this. I am getting scared,” she wrote on Twitter (May 20).
