TURKEY’S opposition Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) called on the international community today to “raise the voices” of hunger strikers as they began their 50th day without food.
Speaking at a press conference in the Turkish parliament, HDP MP Gulistan Kilic Kocyigit insisted that the political prisoners were making “legitimate, legal and democratic demands.”
The rolling hunger strike started in November, on the anniversary of the 1978 foundation of the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK).
