A woman from Antwerp woman that was arrested after she tried to take some stones home with her from her holiday in Turkey is being allowed to return to Belgium.
According to a previous article (written in Dutch), one of the stones they took had flowers drawn on it so therefore it was of historical value. However they found it in a street in-between some trash so it’s not like they really stole it from anywhere. The other stones they took from the shore.
A regular stone??? Fuck Erdogang
If you read the article, it doesn’t say anything about the stones, other than she wanted to put them in her aquarium.
She was arrested because it’s illegal to remove historical artifacts from Turkey
No other info is given

Pebble in your shoe? Straight to jail.
We have the best tourists because of Law! 😂
It was s stone with a carved pattern, they argued it has historical value. She took 3 stones iirc.
The article – which may or may not be accurate – seems to say that there is a prohibition on stones in general, not just carved stones:
Could just be unclear phrasing, of course.
