The respondent is 22 years old and is from Turkey. He was arrested near Vyssa when he was hit by the police who reportedly wore civil clothing, before being taken to Issakio police station where he asked for asylum. His phone and belongings were taken away from him and he was held in a cell for several hours without food or water. Then he was transferred to Fylakio RIC where he was held for two weeks. Food was provided 2-3 times a day but it was cold and poor quality. There were beds and bathrooms in Fylakio, however they were dirty. The respondent reported that everyone in the centre was scared of being pushed back to Turkey so did not complain about the conditions, despite feeling that they were being treated less than human. He reported that there were at least 200 other people being held there. There was limited access to outdoor space and medical care. The police in Fylakio were rude but did not physically abuse him. With the support of a private lawyer, he was released.
