Investigation has been launched against a Turkish judge for posting photos with Armenian writer on Facebok and Twitter, reports, quoting the Turkish Hurriyet daily.

The Turkish Council of Judges and Prosecutors opened investigation against Cemal Sain, a member of the Istanbul Court of Appeals after the judge posted a photo of himself, his two daughters and Armenian writer Migirdic Margosyan on social media. He’s also condemned for criticism of the Turkish state and its law-enforcement system.

The judge has refused from giving testimony, saying he has not violated any law with the publications, especially considering that no charge has been filed.

“Where there is no charge, there is no defense,” Sahin said.
