In Turkey. police officers has the right to ask
Identification any time and if you don't have your
card with you, this may be a reason for getting
arrested. Another interesting fact is that officers
mainly check the back page of the card in which your
place of registration is written. So, they can
distinguish whether you are Kurdish or not... If you
are Kurdish, this means you are always under dnger of
getting arrested. Some Kurds applied to the court to
change thir place of registration (which is allowed
for other citizens, because, in order to lessen the
burocracy, people change their place of registration
to their place of living) but, they were always
rejected. This card is as harsh as the card used
during 1940's for recognizing Jews.
