Timeline
On July 20, 2016, Professor Demir along with 95 colleagues at Istanbul University, were suspended from their academic positions.
In retaliation for his expression of academic opinions and journalistic activities, on July 24, the police took Demir into custody, searched both house and office, and detained him without stating charges. During this period he was denied contact with his lawyer and family members. On August 3, he was formally arrested and jailed on suspicions of being involved in the movement behind the coup d'état attempt in Turkey. Demir has denied involvement in the movement, and publicly denounced the July 15 coup attempt in his column. As the State Department noted in its 2016 human rights report, thousands of Turkish academics and journalists were arrested after the attempted coup with fabricated evidence and little clarity on the charges. On September 1, 2016, Demir was formally dismissed from his duties at Istanbul University with a state of emergency decree that sacked thousands of academics in Turkish universities.
Seven months after his arrest, Prof. Demir was released from prison under judicial supervision with 5 other academics on February 14, 2016.
In 2015, a group of Turkish intellectuals, including Prof. Demir, started a petition campaign titled “Silence the Guns” calling for a reconciliation between the Turkish government and the Kurdish militants to end the ongoing civil war in Eastern Turkey.

As the former General Secretary of the Turkish Press Council, Vedat Demir has defended freedom of the press in Turkey throughout his academic and journalistic career. His scholarship focuses on the role of media in democracy and shaping public opinion. He is the author of The Ethics of Media (2006), The Relationship Between Media and Politics in Turkey (2007), and Public Diplomacy and Soft Power (2012).
