Personal Data Protection Inspector, Mrs. Tamar Kaldani made a statement on sharing videos reflecting torture on the internet.:

“We should wait for the results, since the Ministry of Internal Affairs launched investigation on sharing these materials. On the other hand, it is important that there were questions related to the destruction of the video material. I would like to clarify ones more, that the video materials are evidencing the crime; especially when we talk about footages including facts of torture and inhuman treatment; accordingly they were not destructed. Only small part of the material, including footage of the intimate relations with no links with the persons caring out video recording was subject to destruction. Significant part of the material is transmitted to the prosecution for the investigation – said Tamar Kaldani.
