Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has slammed all terrorist actions during a speech at Baku’s ECO Summit, referring to both a 14-year-old Pakistani girl who was recently shot by the Taliban and a female university student who was killed last week in Istanbul, daily Hürriyet reported.

“The terrorist action which was done to Malala [Yousafzai] is unforgivable,” Erdoğan said. “We witnessed a similar incident with university student [Fatmanur Çelik] in Istanbul. A brutal person who entered [the girl’s] home unfortunately both killed and raped her in the incident.”

Unfortunately, the number of such cases is increasing day by day, the prime minister added.
