CONFERENCE REPORT
The conference was opened by our Chairman Holger Matt, who made clear right from the start that it is a keen interest of the ECBA that not only the rights of the accused to a fair trial are of major importance for the rule of law, but especially that such rights also apply to criminal lawyers, who represent others. Holger Matt expressed his deep concerns that this rule of law is jeopardized by the latest developments in Turkey, as result of which numerous lawyers as well as journalists are in pre-trial detention for the mere execution of their professional duty.
