Lawsuit against Human Rights Association co-chair Eren Keskin

A lawsuit was filed against IHD co-chair Eren Keskin for reacting to the lawsuit filed against Abdülillah Poyraz, the father of HDP member Deniz Poyraz who was murdered in Izmir.

The interview given to the Mesopotamia Agency (MA) by Abdulillah Poyraz, the father of Deniz Poyraz, who was murdered as a result of the armed attack carried out by the racist Onur Gencer against the HDP Izmir Provincial Organization, was cited as the reason for filing a lawsuit.

Eren Keskin, the co-chair of the Human Rights Association (IHD), reacted to the lawsuit filed against Abdülillah Poyraz with the allegation of "making propaganda for a terrorist organization" on her social media account.

According to the information received, the same prosecutor who opened an investigation against Abdülillah Poyraz also filed a criminal complaint against Keskin.

Following the completion of the investigation, an indictment was prepared against Keskin and was accepted by the Izmir Heavy Penal Court. The first hearing of the case will be held on 23 February.

In the indictment, a prison sentence of 3 months to 5 years is demanded for Keskin.

Keskin wrote on her Twitter account: "Another lawsuit has been filed against me at the High Criminal Court for sharing the statement of the father of Deniz Poyraz, the young woman who was murdered by a racist killer.
