Ercan Bayat, who was on the Interior Ministry’s wanted terrorists list with a bounty of 3 million Turkish liras ($400,850), was detained on Tuesday.
On top of that, Bayat was at one point struck with COVID-19, the illness caused by the virus.
Over the past few years, however, young people have moved from this "quiet encroachment" (Bayat 2010: 56) on public space to a more open and vociferous takeover of the national political stage, questioning their waithood status and demanding better lives.
