The Central Bank in Turkey has a special legislation and a - debatably - independent status. Head of Central Bank, Murat Çetinkaya, was removed with a decision by President Erdoğan. This removal revealed once again that Erdoğan’s decisions take place even above the law in this “Turkish-type” Presidential regime that gathers all powers of decision in one hand.

The law draft that would effectively extend the ‘State of Emergency’ for at least another three years has passed the GNAT on 25 July 2018. With amendments made in many law articles including those within the Turkish Anti-Terror Law, the Law on Meetings and Demonstrations and the Law for Provincial Administration; which further conflict many provisions guaranteed in the Constitution, the State of Emergency will effectively continue, however informal.

Former co - chairman of the 3rd largest political part of Turkey, Selahattin Demirtaş is still in prison, despite disproving all the claims against him.

While OHAL (State of Emergency) turns to be permanent, demonstrations and activities are forbidden, Internet obstructed, demanding peace is a crime and right defenders, advocates are criminals.
Erdogan said "The Afrin operation has actually started on the scene, and Menbic will follow it." on January 20.

Separation of powers, judicial independence and checks and balances were perpetually undermined. Along with the State of Emergency (OHAL), which was declared after the failed coup attempt on July 15, 2016, the country was ruled with decrees out of judicial and legislative control.
