Önder Tosun (18) and İsmail Başboğa (24) were taken into custody as result of house raids in Tutak district of Ağrı yesterday evening.

Following procesures at district police headquarters, the two youths were referred to Ağrı Courthouse which later referred them to a vacation court, demanding their arrest for alleged “membership to a terrorist organization”.

Tosun and Başboğa who were arrested on the grounds of participating in last month's protest demonstrations in solidarity with Kobanê resistance were sent to Ağrı M Type Closed Prison.
