BDP building attacked in Doğubeyazıt

Building of the Peace and Democracy Party (BDP) organization in Ağrı's Doğubeyazıt district was targeted by an armed attack on Sunday evening. Bullets hit the room of women's department in the office.

BDP Doğubeyazıt district co-chairs Cemil Rızaoğulları and Fatma Okçu, former mayor of Doğubeyazıt Canan Korkmaz, deputy mayor Mehmet Yavuz, TUYAD-DER Doğubayazıt representative Mehmet Bozkurt, municipal council members, president of Ağrı provincial council, BDP Ağrı executives and many other BDP members have gathered outside the building where they issued a press release after crime science investigation units left the building early afternoon.
 
Speaking here, BDP  Doğubeyazıt district co-chair Cemil Rızaoğulları said that the armed attack was carried out by unidentified perpetrators, and that it was thought-provoking for targeting the department of women. According to Rızaoğulları, the attack was aimed at Kurdish people's leader Abdullah Öcalan who -he said- was the peace envoy and builder of free life in the ongoing process.

BDP executive underlined that attacks will not make Kurds desist from their struggle and demanded the exposure of perpetrators.
