Help Free Our Friend Arrested in Moldovia

Our friend, who is a LGBT community member, got arrested in Moldova during his travels, due to his sexual orientation. He is being held in a prison, where, as we understand from the very limited communication that the conditions are terrible and unsafe. Lawyers that we have been able to contact approximate the legal costs from USD 3,500 to 4,500. The rest of the funds will be utilized for his repatriation to Turkey. As a communist country it is very hard to get reliable information, especially about COVID-19 situation and we fear that he might contact the virus from inmates. That's why time is of great essence for raising funds.
