How long can I be held in detention in Turkey pending an extradition decision?

Turkish law permits provisional detention for up to 40 days initially, extendable by court order during formal extradition proceedings. Total pre-extradition detention can exceed 12 months in complex cases involving treaty interpretation or appeals. Detention review hearings occur periodically, but release on bail during extradition proceedings is rarely granted for CIS nationals due to perceived flight risk. Challenging prolonged detention requires filing constitutional complaints and demonstrating violations of reasonable time requirements under Article 5 of the European Convention on Human Rights.
