A mobile phone video shot by an eyewitness to the clash which erupted between police and three people, claimed to be HPG guerrillas, following the killing of a mother and her two children by police two days ago in Batman, has been released. The news published by DIHA relies on eyewitnesses and supports the suspect that a guerrilla was captured alive and executed by police.

While the Batman Governorate declared after the clash that “PKK killed civilians”, eyewitnesses claimed that police raked through the civilian car, killing eight-month pregnant mother Mizgin Doru (32) and her three-year-old daughter, and then clashed with three alleged HPG guerrillas, killing two and capturing one alive.

While the video of the severe clash between the police and three persons confirms the statements of eyewitnesses, armored police vehicles and special operations policemen are seen on the recording which reveals an astonishing detail towards the end: one of the alleged HPG guerrillas is beaten as he is been dragged to the police car by two policemen. The video strengthens allegations that one person was first captured alive and then executed by police who are heard shouting: “Shoot on the head”, “Kill him”.
