Three eggs result in 11 years prison sentence request
Three eggs result in 11 years prison sentence request
Students Collective activists have strongly protested against the public prosecution request for a 11 years prison sentence for law student Yiðit Ergün. The heavy sentence was asked for "resistance and insulting a police officer" after Ergün wanted to enter the university with "three eggs"” in his bag on the day of President Abdullah Gül's visit to the University of Istanbul (ÝÜ).
Yiðit Ergün said in the press release on behalf of the students: "AKP is trying to spread fear in universities. They are afraid of us and indeed they shall fear us as AKP members will be welcomed with eggs in universities until we obtain our rights."
The protest ended with comedy sketches played by college students.
Another protest took place on Tuesday in Hakkari where DÝHA reporter Hamdiye Çiftçi and 15 Kurdish politicians including Peace and Democracy Party (BDP) Hakkari Branch Co-Chairs M. Sýddýk Akýþ and Berivan Akboða were heard.
