Germany and Turkey are heading for a diplomatic row after Berlin formally demanded the immediate release of a 17-year-old German schoolboy held for more than two months in a Turkish jail allegedly for merely kissing and flirting with a 13-year-old British girl.
Marco Weiss, from the German town of Uelzen, has been held since early April over allegations that he had sexually molested a girl from Manchester, referred to as Charlotte M. Both were on holiday in the southern Turkish resort town of Side.
The German media published reports yesterday that Marco was being held in a jail with a single lavatory, which he had to share with about 30 other prisoners, in the town of Antalya. He was waiting to appear before a court at a hearing which had been postponed until 6 July.
His parents, who were in Antalya, said that they were allowed to see their son only once a week, when they were separated from him by a glass screen. The German government issued a diplomatic note to Turkey demanding the schoolboy's immediate release from prison. Peter Struck, the family's MP, said: "I am shocked by the conditions under which he is being held and by the way that this matter is being dealt with by the Turkish authorities. He should be released immediately."
German reports said that the 13-year-old British girl's mother had demanded that police intervene and arrest Marco. They said she was seeking to prosecute the boy on charges that he had sexually molested her daughter.
However, the boy's parents insisted that their son had merely kissed and flirted with the girl, who had claimed to be 15 years old. They said her 14-year-old sister was on the balcony of the same hotel room at the time.
There was no immediate Turkish government response to Germany's demands. However, an editorial in the Turkish newspaper Hurriyet said the German government was "insulting the Turkish justice system".
