Tunç: PM wants to destroy territory with 'crazy projects'
Independent MP Candidate for Dersim, Ferhat Tunç remarked that the AKP government is trying to destroy the Dersim territory with "crazy projects".
The opening of election liaison Office in Pülümür district of Dersim on Thursday was attended by many people including Labour, Democracy and Freedom Block Dersim Independent Candidate Ferhat Tunç and Mayor of Dersim Edibe Sahin. Speaking at the opening, Tunc drew attention that two HPG members have lost their lives in the clash in Pülümür. Tunç said the followings; “Last night we received a sorrowful news that two sons of this people were shot. People are going to lose their lives unless this problem is solved. I have always shouted out for peace on this geography. However, those annoyed by my screams opened numerous cases, arrested, threatened with death; they only haven’t killed yet. And I have also been people’s warrior for peace. And I am proud of that”.
Referring to Prime Minister's "crazy project", Tunç remarked that the AKP government is trying to destroy the Dersim territory with "crazy projects. Tunç said the followings; “The retrogressive mentality of the AKP is continually producing crazy projects in an effort to make
the Dersim territory without people. The dams planned to be constructed on Ovacik and Pülümür Valley will be a big genocide of our nature, culture and belief centers. Already the Prime Minister wants to be a crazy dictator. Dersim people are a people with dignity and they will not allow that”. Marking that the Dersim massacre was carried out with the signature of the CHP (Republican People’s Party), Tunç called on to CHP party leader Kemal Kýlýçdaroglu to apologize to the people of Dersim on behalf of the party.
Dersim Mayor Edibe Sahin said that parents in democratic countries lay their children to rest but the parents in states absent from democracy bury their children in the ground.
Following the opening after speeches, reactions came out when civilian police officers took picture during Tunç’s visit to some storekeepers. While interesting dialogues were made between police and citizens, reactions came when the police officers said “this place is ours”.
