My dear friend Jake Hess has been arrested by the Turkish police. He is being detained without charges and not being allowed to see his lawyer. jake has being doing human rights work in Southeastern Turkey for about 1.5 years. He is a journalist for Interpress Service and a former Brown MA student in History. He is a wonderful, decent person who does important work. This is very serious.
