Mark Lowen considered ‘threat to public order’ after reports on nationwide anti-government demonstrations
The BBC correspondent Mark Lowen has been arrested and deported from Turkey after reporting on the country’s largest anti-government protests in years.
The broadcaster said Lowen was arrested in Istanbul on Wednesday, having been there for several days to cover the protests, which were prompted by the arrest last week of the mayor of Istanbul, Ekrem İmamoğlu.
