TURKEY-POLITICS-COUP-TRIAL-ARMY
Women, calling themselves ''victims of the post-modern coup'' demonstrate on September 2, 2013 in front of a courthouse in Ankara. Turkey's former army chief and more than 100 other suspects went on trial on September 2 over a 1997 bloodless coup that toppled the country's first Islamist head of government. General Ismail Hakki Karadayi stands accused with 102 co-defendents of "overthrowing the Turkish government by force." Prosecutors have called for a life sentence for Karadayi, who did not attend the hearing at an Ankara court due to ill health. Placards read: ''We want all of our rights back. Unjust treatment for 16 years worth a thousand years'' (R) and ''We want justice. Trial will be exemplary to all support coups.'' (L) AFP PHOTO / ADEM ALTAN
