TEV-ÇAND Europe said in a statement that "free media workers Gülistan Tara and Hêro Bahadîn were murdered in a vile attack by the collaborationist and traitorous Barzani family. We will not hesitate to make any sacrifice to achieve their goals."
In a written statement, TEV-ÇAND Europe said that "the misogynist genocidal fascist Turkish state has been continuing its physical and cultural genocidal attacks on Kurds for 100 years together with the Barzani family, who insist on the treasonous line. When it could not achieve results with the attacks it developed against the freedom guerrillas, it has also constantly targeted the press and culture, which are the free voice of the Kurdish people."
The statement added: "Most recently, on 23 August, free media workers Gülistan Tara and Hêro Bahadîn were murdered in a despicable attack by the collaborator and treasonous Barzani family."
'Let's expand the struggle, let's unite'
The statement added: "As culture and art workers, we condemn these attacks carried out with dirty alliances against the Kurdish people and its free voice, the free press and culture workers. We remember with great respect and gratitude the free media and culture workers who were killed, and we offer our condolences to their patriotic families. We also wish a speedy recovery to the wounded."
The statement continued: "The longing for freedom will be a hope for all women and peoples of the world with the philosophy of Jin, Jiyan, Azadi.
We will continue to be the voice of freedom, and to expose the dirty faces of these genocidal and treasonous groups with our art. Let us stand together and be united against the misogynist, anti-society genocidal systems and policies by standing in the path of truth. Let us grow the struggle."
