Selma Altın sings in the activist collective and band Grup Yorum. Since the band’s inception, its critical songs have angered the Turkish government and members have faced serious threats. Altın was added to the “wanted terrorists” list by the Ministry of Interior in February 2018, and a reward of 300,000 Turkish lira was promised to those who helped catch her. She was granted refugee status in France in 2018.
