ISTANBUL (AP) – The latest developments on the situation in Turkey after a failed military coup last week (all times local):

3 p.m.

Germany is urging Turkey to respect the rule of law after Ankara imposed a state of emergency following an attempted coup.

German government spokesman Steffen Seibert says several people detained in the wake of the failed coup had been shown on camera and appeared to have been mistreated.

He told reporters in Berlin Friday that it “raises troubling questions if accused people are seen on television or photos bearing clear traces of physical violence. If individual people are humiliated or denigrated in front of the camera.”
