Kurdish people will be taking to the streets on December 10 Human Rights Day in protest at the isolation on Kurdish People’s Leader Abdullah Öcalan who is not heard from for a long while, the Turkish state’s bombardments against Kurdistan, attacks against the Kurdish people and hostile approach towards Rojava.

Democratic Kurdish Society Centres announced in a statement on the demonstrations that they will never accept Turkey’s aggravated isolation policy against Öcalan who is held captive in İmralı Island Prison for 19 years, stressing that this isolation will never manage to severe their tie with the Kurdish leader.

Protesting the silence of the outside world, Scandinavian countries, the European Union and the Committee for the Prevention of Torture (CPT) about the isolation imposed upon Öcalan, Democratic Kurdish Society Centres called on the Kurdistan people and their friends living in Scandinavian countries to ensure strong participation in the following demonstrations against the isolation on Öcalan and attacks against the Kurdish people.
