Duchess of York charged by Turkey over orphans film

A court in Turkey has brought charges against the Duchess of York for illegally filming orphans in the country for a television documentary.

The Duchess and her daughter Princess Eugenie visited the orphanage near Ankara while making a film for the ITV Tonight programme in 2008.

The court accused her of going "against the law in acquiring footage and violating privacy" of five children.

She faces a maximum term of more than 22 years in prison if convicted.

(continued, won't feel so high and mighty blowing a turkish prison guards cock for those little luxuries?) :smoke:

Seems to me they're more pissed off at the conditions in the orphanage being exposed than defending the children's privacy rights.
The Duchess wore a disguise to enter the institution and filmed scenes of children tied to their beds and left in cots all day.

At the time, the Turkish government accused her of being involved in a "smudge campaign" when Turkey was trying to get membership of the European Union.

That may be the case. If she broke the law it is still wrong. As a joint member of the Council of Europe we are obliged to comply with extradition requests and have done so in the past with Turkey. Some guy got fifty years over some trivial insurrance scam just last year. :tup:

Yep, but Fergie deserves anything she gets given self promotion is her primary aim in anything she gets involved with (he said uncharitably..).

So, what are the countries with extradition treaties with Turkey? I think she's not going to visit any of those anytime soon.
