Two HEDEP members imprisoned in Mersin
The Turkish regime’s political extermination campaign against the Kurdish people and their elected representatives continues unabated.
The Peoples’ Equality and Democracy Party (HEDEP) Party Assembly member Naif Bulğa and HEDEP Youth Council member Mazlum Kaya were detained in the southern province of Mersin on 28 October.
The prosecutor demanded the imprisonment of both HEDEP members because of their social media posts, accusing them of “disseminating propaganda for a terrorist organization” and “being members of a terrorist organization”, meaning the PKK.
Both HEDEP members were remanded in custody and sent to prison.
