Turkey’s Duvar portal reported Thursday that Turkey’s Broadcasting Supreme Council (RTUK) has fined Netflix streaming platform and called on it to remove Spanish TV series “More, More Fun” for its promotion of homosexuality, incest and swing in violation of moral principles.

Two broadcasters critical of the government – TELE1 and Halk TV – as well as another broadcasting platform were also fined for insulting religious values ​​and described Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan as a dictator.

Okan Konuralp, representative of the opposition CHP in RTUK, defended the words of the party’s deputy, Engin Altay, broadcast on the pages of TELE1, who described Erdogan as a dictator. He stressed that the penalty for his statement is an attack on freedom of expression and parliamentary immunity.
