Voices was told the workers turned up this morning without warning, and were poised to begin uprooting outside areas.

It’s thought that they are acting on orders of the Aydin Coastal Commission.

This is the same authority which caused consternation in mid-August with plans to demolish the restaurants in Mavisehir.

That action was temporarily stopped when restaurant owners kicked up about the actions.
