Turkey detains stand-up comedian for allegedly insulting religious values

ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — Turkish authorities on Thursday detained a comedian whose stand-up routine drew complaints that it insulted religious values after it was widely viewed online.

Deniz Goktas was detained for questioning at Istanbul’s main airport on his return from a trip abroad, the state-run Anadolu agency reported, days after prosecutors launched an investigation into possible charges of “publicly insulting religious values.”

Everyone's always like, "What's he doing? I thought he'd blow up by now." So go blow him.

my nephew is named Bradley Bell and is a huge fan. sadly, he’s incarcerated and very lonely and specifically asked if any of you would connect with him. his inmate number is 2153577 and id in Dillwyn correctional facility in Virginia. he’s available on the getting out app. he’s a cool guy and could sure use the conversations. thanks in advance.

He's doing an extended set before going on the road.
