The Şenyaşar family has held a sit-in protest in front of the Urfa Courthouse for 702 days. “When the ruling party changes, independent courts will judge those who hide behind Erdoğan one by one,” the family said.

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 702nd day.
