About this episode
Protests in Turkey enter their sixth day following the jailing of Istanbul mayor Ekrem Imamoglu on corruption charges. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said the demonstrations in support of the detained figure have turned into what he called “a movement of violence”. Earlier, the Turkish government said more than 1,100 people have been arrested since protests broke out. We speak to the relative of someone who has been arrested for demonstrating. Also on the programme: After DNA-testing firm 23andMe files for bankruptcy, a legal expert explains whether customers’ genetic data is safe; and the editor of The Atlantic magazine says US security leaders added him to a group chat about upcoming strikes in Yemen.
