Turkey: The rocking imam
August 2, 2013Advertisement
In his 'normal' life as an imam, he takes care of a small village congregation not far from the city of Antalya. He likes to break with convention. So he's married to a Christian woman, and has occasionally had to give up his job for her. The religious authorities have shown more tolerance for his rock music. Imam Tüzer wants to use it to transform the image of his profession.
