Lawyers of Kurdish people's leader Abdullah Öcalan, Raziye Turgut, Serbay Köklü, Rezan Sarıca and Ibrahim Bilmez

applied to Bursa Chief Public Prosecutor's Office to meet with their client.

Lawyers Rezan Sarıca and Newroz Uysal, held their last visits on 2 and 22 May, 12 and 18 June and 7 August 2019. These were the first visits allowed after 8 years of total isolation.

Bursa Chief Public Prosecutor's Office had issued a 6-month ban on lawyers' visits, citing the "Road Map" prepared in addition to the defense sent by Abdullah Öcalan on 23 September 2009 to the European Court of Human Rights.
