	ANKARA - HDP Kocaeli MP Ömer Faruk Gergerlioğlu stated that the Boğaziçi University students who were detained by the police for protesting the appointment of a rector have been subjected to strip search.

	&nbsp;

	Gergerlioğlu said: "This is a regime of law decrees. This regime has handcuffed the gates of the university.The government is trying to take control of the universities instead of allowing the universities to be autonomous."

	&nbsp;

	Underlining that AKP's Bulu being appointed to the university is the latest example of this, Gergerlioğlu said: "This is not a high school. This is a university. Ofcourse the students will react to the rector that was appointed due to his political identity. This is a constitutional right."

	&nbsp;

	STUDENTS WERE STRIP SEARCHED

	&nbsp;

	Gergerlioğlu said: "Students have protested the appointment of a rector. Scores of them were taken into custody with raids on their homes. So what happens? These all show that we live in a police state. The real crime is committed by the Governorship of İstanbul which violates a constitutional right just like a bully. The students detained yesterday were subjected to strip search. All of these shouldn't be happening."
