Legal procedures have been finalized for 19 people who were evacuated from Sur recently after suffering continuous bombardment on their neighborhoods for days. These include 8 children who were similarly detained and referred to prosecutor's office after the evacuation. While 7 children were released on conditions of “judicial control”, 12 people including a baby were referred to a court with a demand for their arrest. 9 of these were remanded in custody for alleged “membership to an illegal organisation” and “changing the constitutional order by use of arms”, while 3 were released on conditions of “judicial control”.
The names of those arrested are; 17 years old M.Ç., Remziye Tosun, DBP Bağlar district co-chair Reyhan Kavak, Ümit Özkan, Deniz Ataş, Bedri Oğuz, Cengiz Abiş, Emine Abiş, Mehmet Can Alpaydinci.
Remziye Tosun's 1,5 year-old baby Beritan Tosun will also be jailed together with her mother. Due to an ongoing imprisonment of her husband, Tosun's other 6 children were handed over to the Society for the Protection of Children.
The first group of 5 people evacuated from Sur on 19 February had also been detained and later jailed, including DIHA reporter Mazlum Dolan. A civilian and wounded woman by the name of Fatma Ateş whom the group tried to carry to an ambulance had died soon after their evacuation.
