'Beylerbeyi Palace, Istanbul, Turkey' - by K J S Chatrath

 

 


The Beylerbeyi Palace, Beylerbeyi meaning "King of Kings", is located in the Üsküdar district in Istanbul, Turkey, at the Asian side of the Bosphorus. An Imperial Ottoman summer residence built between 1861 and 1865, it is now situated immediately north of the first Bosphorus Bridge. It was the last place where Sultan Abdulhamid II was under house arrest before his death in 1918.
 
I visited this Palace in May 2022. Sadly photography is prohibited inside the Palace. The photos that I have put up here are from their brochure.

My suggestion would be to award the following punishment to the person found guilty of rape by a court of law:   (i) Compulsory Physical castration (ii) Compulsory Whipping (iii) Circulation of the photo in media and TV of the man castrated for rape    Necessary amendments to the law could be made including (i) No adjournment to be allowed while the case is being heard and (ii) setting up of a time limit for completing the case.
