The statements of those detained in Istanbul on 24 September have been completed. Peoples' Equality and Democracy Party (DEM Party) executive Yusuf Meniye, DEM Party Arnavutköy District Organization executive Hayrettin Erikli, Democratic Regions Party (DBP) executive Mustafa Kızılaya, Peoples' Democratic Congress (HDK) worker Şamil Altan, and MATUHAY-DER executive Kalo Bozutmak were released after giving their statements to the prosecutor.

DEM Party First Region co-spokesperson Dilber Demir, however, was referred to a judge with a request for arrest.

The court ruled that Demir should be arrested on charges of "membership of an illegal organization."
