Imam Şiş reached day 144 of his hunger strike in Wales

Kurdish activist Imam Şiş has been on hunger for 144 days in Newport.

Imam Şiş, who has been on hunger strike for 142 days in Newport, Wales, demanding the end of isolation said he will continue his fast until isolation is lifted.

Imam Şiş has reiterated his determination in continuing the hunger strike until isolation is lifted. While recognising the visit granted to lawyers to Kurdish People's Leader Abdullah Öcalan is a very big step and success, confirmed that it falls short of ending isolation which is the demand of the hunger strikers.

Şiş reminded to have gone on hunger strike joining the “resistance led by Leyla Guven who had launched hunger strike on 7 November."
