AI Summary:
Police in Turkiye have detained four people over a cartoon published by the satirical magazine LeMan. The cartoon triggered a backlash from government officials and religious groups. Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya posted a video showing the arrest of cartoonist Dogan Pehlevan. LeMan urged authorities to investigate what it described as a targeted smear campaign. Later in the evening, videos surfaced online of protesters marching to LeMan’s office in Istanbul. The case has reignited debates in Turkiye over the boundaries of free expression and religious sensitivity.
