The Turkish prosecutor's office is demanding more than two years in prison for actress Ezgi Mola for "insulting" a former soldier who raped an 18-year-old Kurdish girl, BirGün reported.

Mola’s tweet, posted shortly after Orhan’s release in August, said: “I hope that you drown in your conscience (whoever) freed such a rapist b*****d. Now you have taken away everything from us — the law, prayers, wishes, desires, hope!! What can I say! Shame on you! #ArrestMusaOrhan.”  

Musa Orhan is currently on trial facing charges of causing the death of 18-year-old Ipek Er in the southeastern province of Batman. Er attempted suicide on July 16 last year and eventually died in hospital. She left a letter in which she claimed that Orhan had raped her and later told her, “Report me wherever you want! I’ll be fine.”

Musa's lawyer has filed charges against the actress, who will appear before a judge in Ankara.

In response, the lawyer brought charges against 16 celebrities who joined the social media campaign.
