A prominent Turkish lawyer in Germany, who has received death threats by far-right militants, has been forced to live under protection for the past five years, she told Anadolu on Wednesday. Seda Basay Yildiz, one of the lawyers targeted by the far-right terrorist group, National Socialist Underground (NSU), which is responsible for the murders of 10 people, including eight Turks, from 2000 to 2007, noted that she and her family were forced to live under protection as far-right sympathizers in the police leaked their personal information to militants.
