Amnesty International is seriously concerned for the safety of Ibrahim Alpdogan who was taken into custody from his village on 20 June 1999 by soldiers from Pazarc k Gendarmerie Command, and is now reportedly detained either at Pazarc k Gendarmerie Command or at police headquarters in Kahraman Mara town, South Eastern Turkey. The fact that the authorities have not acknowledged that he is in detention increases the risk that he may be tortured or ill-treated.
