Şenyaşar family: Everyone should choose sides

On the 659th day of their sit-in protest for justice, the Şenyaşar family said, “Everyone should choose sides. Remaining silent means that you are a party to the persecution.”

Riha - The sit-in protest held in front of the Urfa Courthouse by Emine Şenyaşar, whose husband and two sons were murdered in the attack carried out by the relatives and bodyguards of AKP Urfa MP İbrahim Halil Yıldız in the Suruç (Kurdish: Pirsûs) district of Urfa province on June 14, 2018, and her son Ferit Şenyaşar has entered its 659th day.

Today, Emine Şenyaşar could not come in front of the courthouse because she has been testifying at the police station.  Her son Ferit Şenyaşar came in front of the courthouse in the morning to demand justice again. “Today, the mother (Emine Şenyaşar) is not here! The mother has been testifying at the police station as the accused again! The victim is again the AKP MP, the instigator of the massacre at the hospital! Everyone should choose sides. Remaining silent means that you are a party to the persecution,” the Şenyaşar family posted on their social media account today.
