Local people in the village of Prejman ( Kurşunlu) in Amed's Dicle district have set up a tent of resistance after security forces didn't allow the opening of “Sheik Said Martyr's Cemetery” built in the village for fallen guerrillas of the Kurdistan People's Liberation Army (Artesa Rizgarîya Gelê Kurdîstan, ARGK) and People's Defense Forces (HPG).

Special operation teams and police units carried out an operation in the village at around 03:00 last night, forcibly removing the tent and battering the people joining the vigil to protect the cemetery of martyrs.

Security forces reviled the people before forcing them away from the area where an operation has reportedly been launched after the intervention and is still going on.

People on their way to the martyr's cemetery for the opening the day before were denied access to the area upon an instruction by the governor of Diyarbakır.
