Democratic Regions' Party (DBP) has released a statement following the detention of Co-chairs and 11 MPs of the Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) in a large scale operation tonight.

The statement by DBP said the followings: “The coup of the AKP government continues. Detention of co-chairs and deputies of Turkey's third largest party, which received 6 million votes, is a coup against the will of the people that can never be accepted. It is time for all our people and democracy forces to adopt a stance against this coup. Those who confiscate the people's will will never triumph. As DBP we call upon our people and all democracy forces to raise voice against fascism.”
