On the 550th day of the sit-in protest, the Şenyaşar family addressed the Ministry of Justice and wrote, “You will be remembered for what you have done.”

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 district of Urfa province on June 14, 2018, and her son Ferit Şenyaşar has entered its 550th day today.
