Report: Kurdish Linguistic Rights in Courtrooms in Turkey

Kurdish Linguistic Rights in Courtrooms in Turkey Report  


PEN Norway has examined the use of the Kurdish language in legal cases and court room in Turkey. Our report findings illustrate that few Kurdish speakers were allowed to use their mother tongue. 


Four out of five Kurdish speakers report on discrimination in Court cases 


PEN Norway’s report, Kurdish Linguistic Rights in Courtrooms in Turkey, has examined the possibility for Kurdish speakers to use their native language in court cases. A total of 226 Kurdish-speaking journalists, writers, and civil society actors participated in the study. The Kurds are the largest ethnic and linguistic minority in Turkey. For decades, they have been denied the right to their own language and identity in public spheres.

Recommendations:

1. It is recommended by PEN Norway that the authorities in Turkey establish an independent body to train, examine (bi-annually) and maintain a register of qualified interpreters in Kurdish-Turkish legal interpreting. Serious attempts should be made to ensure gender balance on said register.

2. We further recommend that courses be offered not only in Kurdish and Turkish legal interpreting, but for all languages supported in the courts in Turkey. An example is PEN Norway’s workshop held in conjunction between TOHAV (Toplum ve Hukuk Araştırma Vakfı) beginning 14 October, 2024 in Istanbul, Turkey, in which 15 interpreters received 12 training sessions focusing on the law in general, on sight translation, Turkish-Kurdish and Kurdish-Turkish written, consecutive and simultaneous interpreting, as well as an initial lecture on ethics and impartiality in relation to courtroom interpreting.

3. We further recommend that a committee of experts should be established to assess the need for an independent institution to initiate and oversee examinations for a qualification in interpreting and translating in the courtroom.

4. It is recommended that the UK’s Institute of Linguists and its DPSI (Diploma in Public Service Interpreting) is taken as a model and that care is taken and investment made to consult and to begin to implement such a system via an independent institution in Turkey.

5. We would recommend that, whilst the Kurdish language remains such a source for discrimination in the judicial system, steps are taken to further protect and ensure the rights of its speakers in the courts at every level in Turkey, either by way of the establishment of a category for signatories to the Charter on Regional or Minority Languages that can be signed (and on examination, current signatories have the option to ‘select’ the categories they wish to implement) by member states of the Council of Europe rather than only the EU, or by way of more stringent articles being added to existing legislation in order to address the lack of regulation of interpreting in the courtrooms in Turkey.

6. We would recommend that the authorities in Turkey enter into dialogue with the relevant offices in the Council of Europe’s Directorate-General for Neighbourhood and Enlargement Negotiations in order to discuss funding and training for such crucial reforms in the securing of linguistic rights within the judicial system in Turkey

Report findings:


  • 99% of defendants surveyed were not informed by the police taking their initial statements (so many of which go on to constitute the basis of entire indictments) of their right to give their statements in their first language
  • Prior to their giving a statement, the charges were not explained to 62% of defendants surveyed in their first language, or in a language that they could best understand
  • 52% of defendants surveyed expressed the wish to use their first language (either during the giving of their statement or during their trial). However, 63% of those requesting was denied
  • 78% of defendants surveyed did not think the interpreter accurately conveyed their statements (spoken testimony) to the court
  • 68% of the defendants surveyed stated that the judge made remarks about their request to use Kurdish, many of which, when one looks at the narrative answers, were derogatory, referring to Kurdish at best as an ‘unknown language’
  • The court documents were not explained to 99% of defendants surveyed in their first and best-known language.
  • 53% of defendants surveyed were advised to forgo an interpreter in order to speed up proceedings.
  • 47% of defendants believed that an inadequacy in being able to understand or being understood affected the outcome of the trial.

Recommendations:

1. It is recommended by PEN Norway that the authorities in Turkey establish an independent body to train, examine (bi-annually) and maintain a register of qualified interpreters in Kurdish-Turkish legal interpreting. Serious attempts should be made to ensure gender balance on said register.

2. We further recommend that courses be offered not only in Kurdish and Turkish legal interpreting, but for all languages supported in the courts in Turkey. An example is PEN Norway’s workshop held in conjunction between TOHAV (Toplum ve Hukuk Araştırma Vakfı) beginning 14 October, 2024 in Istanbul, Turkey, in which 15 interpreters received 12 training sessions focusing on the law in general, on sight translation, Turkish-Kurdish and Kurdish-Turkish written, consecutive and simultaneous interpreting, as well as an initial lecture on ethics and impartiality in relation to courtroom interpreting.

3. We further recommend that a committee of experts should be established to assess the need for an independent institution to initiate and oversee examinations for a qualification in interpreting and translating in the courtroom.

4. It is recommended that the UK’s Institute of Linguists and its DPSI (Diploma in Public Service Interpreting) is taken as a model and that care is taken and investment made to consult and to begin to implement such a system via an independent institution in Turkey.

5. We would recommend that, whilst the Kurdish language remains such a source for discrimination in the judicial system, steps are taken to further protect and ensure the rights of its speakers in the courts at every level in Turkey, either by way of the establishment of a category for signatories to the Charter on Regional or Minority Languages that can be signed (and on examination, current signatories have the option to ‘select’ the categories they wish to implement) by member states of the Council of Europe rather than only the EU, or by way of more stringent articles being added to existing legislation in order to address the lack of regulation of interpreting in the courtrooms in Turkey.

6. We would recommend that the authorities in Turkey enter into dialogue with the relevant offices in the Council of Europe’s Directorate-General for Neighbourhood and Enlargement Negotiations in order to discuss funding and training for such crucial reforms in the securing of linguistic rights within the judicial system in Turkey
