He was not born there, but grew up there, learned there and fell as a martyr there. He never went elsewhere, never looked the other way, Cilo was everything for him.

Everything had happened in Cilo. He assumed that he sought himself, strengthened his search, found meaning, friendship, met with love, began to love difficulties, labor, will, and determination were the greatest virtue, and he lived that way.

Guerilla Cekdar Amed never went anywhere else. And on 9 September he became immortal in Cilo with his three friends.

In the words of his friends, young Çeko said, "Here we are, this is our place, that is the place of the Cilo group," and the journey of companionship began.

In such places, the meaning increases. Such places are places where we increase the meaning of our search. When one tastes even a moment of freedom around here, it’s like eternity, limitlessness and timelessness. There are so many rivers and so many mountains to flow around here.

I insistently go to guerrilla Çekdar asking him for an interview. I wanted him to overcome his timidity. All of his friends were mobilized to give us interviews. I put the camera in front of him and walked away and sat under a tree. Two minutes later he gestured and called me. He said, in the broken Turkish of the young people from Diyarbakır, which they call pexas: "I feel like crazy, you sit opposite to me and I will speak."

And he started talking. He explained the special war, what special war was, why it was implemented, how the Erdogan media took over the role of carrying out the special war when the military technology proved useless against the guerrilla.

He knew the enemy, guerrilla Çekdar, and because he knew it, he decided to go to the mountains and fight it. That shy guerrilla became a person full of determination and a stern look.

He was the Çeko that his comrades knew. I smiled when he finished speaking. "You said you couldn't talk" I said. As he replied, I recognized him, "I am shy about my comrades, not against my enemy." This sentence is actually a sentence that sums up the whole guerrilla. We chatted for hours, and in every speech he spoke about Cilo's beauty, his companionship, his own personality, the martyrs he met. So when it was about Cilo and the enemy, guerrilla Çekdar opened up.

And a month later he went to Cilo. He loved the place. It was the place of martyrs Jindar Ezgi, Bager Garzan, Devrim Amed and Helin Murat. According to Çeko, these places should always be protected, because Cilo is full of the memories of the martyrs and the values they left here. We said goodbye to guerrilla Çeko and the six beautiful guerrillas who were with him.

Around here, the most burning thing in the guerrilla is to say goodbye and farewell. As Ali Haydar Kaytan said, "Separation is the very beginning of love."

Good luck guerrilla Çekdar Amed, good luck, young Çeko of Cilo.
