26 people were detained and many got wounded during the police intervention in the march in Cizre which was planned for giving support to Kurdish politicians under the KCK case. Making a statement about the innumerable gas bombs thrown on the BDP district building and the Democratic Solution Tent, BDP Sýrnak District Chair Abit Ýke said the followings; "As you all see, everything is in front of your eyes. They messed the party building up, threw hundreds of gas bombs, attacked with water cannons and detained our friends”.
