MUSICIAN Ferhat Tunc is on an alleged execution list of opponents of authoritarian Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the exiled Kurd said on Saturday in a video statement.

He said that he had been told by German authorities that his life was in danger after his name appeared on a hit list of 55 that includes opposition journalists and politicians.

“For 40 years I have been committed to the arts. At the same time, I raise my voice against human rights violations. I never distinguish between the people whose rights I stand up for,” he said.
