Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) Co-chairs Sebahat Tuncel and Ertuğrul Kürkçü and HDP İstanbul MPs Sırrı Süreyya Önder and Levent Tüzel have ended the hunger strike they launched on Tuesday. HDP co-chairs and deputies protested against court decision in Diyarbakır which rejected the release of five imprisoned BDP MPs who are currently facing trial on KCK cases.

The hunger strike of HDP officials was also joined by Peace and Democracy Party (BDP) Muş MP Demir Çelik and BDP Van MP Özdal Üçer on Wednesday.
