While reaction and criticism continues over the release of a photograph belonging to YJA Star guerrilla Kevser Eltürk (Ekin Wan) as stripped off her uniform, Turkish soldiers have committed another inhumane treatment against a HPG guerrilla.
Soldiers have released a photo on social media of a tortured HPG guerrilla who lost his life in Kars two days ago.
The HPG guerrilla in the photo is seen to have been tortured after his death in a clash in the rural area of Karabaş village in Sarıkamış district of Kars on September 20th.
The photo features two soldiers involved in the mentioned clash who tied HPG guerrilla's arms with a rope and hanged his body down a cliff. The photo was later released on social media by soldiers themselves who pose with a smile on their face.
While local sources have confirmed the savagery committed on the HPG guerrilla, his body has sent to Erzurum Forensic Medicine Institution for post-mortem.
Kevser Eltürk, nom de guerre Ekin Wan, was martyred in Gimgim (Varto) on 10th August as a result of a firefight with the occupying Turkish forces, who later stripped her off clothes and dragged her naked body on the ground in the town centre. Ekin Wan's naked body was later exposed on social media.
In a statement released today, KCK (Kurdistan Communities Union) Executive Council Co-Presidency said the Turkish state's attacks on martyrs' bodies and cemeteries was the top of chauvinism and fascism. KCK also warned that; "If the Turkish state tramples on these values and crosses the limits, this will create an environment where battles and clashes would get out of hand."
