Residents of Maxmur Martyr Rustem Cudi Refugee Camp organized a march to condemn the heavy isolation imposed on Kurdish People's Leader Abdullah Öcalan. Photographs of Öcalan were carried during the march.

Speaking on behalf of the camp residents, Maxmur People's Assembly co-chair Filiz Budak drew attention to the fascist system developed by the AKP-MHP government and its policies against the Kurdish people and Kurdish People's Leader Abdullah Öcalan and said: "We will continue to fight against isolation and for the freedom of our Leader. We are working hard in Kurdistan, Europe and Maxmur to break this isolation. There has been no news from the Leader for more than two years. Today, the Kurdish people are kept in isolation in the person of our Leader. They are trying to force the Kurdish people to stay without a status and abandon their own culture. No government can succeed against the power of the people. The elections to be held in North Kurdistan on 14 May have a huge importance. The AKP-MHP fascist government will become history in this election."
