The police-soldier terror on our people, institutions and their workers continue uninterruptedly despite all the calls we have made so far. Still, the Turkish state and the AKP government have not given an end to the attacks on our leader and people; they have on the contrary disallowed our people to celebrate their day and attacked Newroz celebrations, made rehearsals for mass slaughter, ravenously attacked civilian and defenseless people and didnt not abstain from manifesting its racist and massacre face by leading to the dead of a patriotic Kurdish citizen, injury of dozens of people and arrest of hundreds of people.
