January 5, 20169 yr Erdogan najavio skidanje imuniteta, a zatim i hapšenje kurdskih lidera. Quote Turkey’s Erdogan backs criminal probe into Kurdish leadersPosted on January 5, 2016by Editorial Staff in PoliticsTurkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Photo: AP ISTANBUL,— Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan has said he backs a criminal investigation into leaders of the pro-Kurdish opposition over comments about Kurdish self-rule, saying those who committed constitutional crimes must “pay the price“. A Turkish prosecutor opened an investigation into Selahattin Demirtas, co-head of the pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP), last week after a two-day congress of Kurdish groups called for greater self-governance. The probe comes as predominantly Turkish Kurdistan, the Kurdish region in southeast Turkey, experiences some of its worst violence since the 1990s after a two-year ceasefire between Kurdish militants and the state collapsed in July. “The statements of the HDP leaders are constitutional crimes. There are investigations started by prosecutors against them. These should be followed up,” Erdogan told reporters in comments published by the Hurriyet newspaper on Saturday. “I believe the process that will start with the removal of immunities will have a positive impact on the mood of our country in fighting terrorism,” he said. Reveal hidden contents Reveal hidden contents Turkish state still denies the constitutional existence of Kurds numbering to 22.5 million of the country’s 78-million population, The Kurds demand an autonomy within Turkey. On December 27, the Democratic Society Congress (DTK), an association of Kurdish political organisations, released a declaration calling for self-rule in Turkish Kurdistan. As members of parliament, Demirtas and other HDP leaders would normally enjoy immunity from such cases, although they could be prosecuted and have the sentence suspended until a time when they no longer have immunity. Erdogan urged parliament last July to lift the immunity of politicians with suspected links to militants, after a prosecutor launched an investigation into Demirtas over accusations he “provoked and armed” protesters. The PKK initially took up arms in 1984 against the Turkish state to push for greater autonomy for the Kurdish minority in Turkish Kurdistan. The conflict has left tens of thousands dead. Erdogan said on Thursday there would be no let-up in a military campaign that he said had killed more than 3,000 militants last year. Demirtas has said the campaign is targeting local people who are presented as “terrorists”, a charge the government denies. The HDP said on Saturday that around 1,000 people were trapped in the Zap district of Silopi province in the southeast, many sheltering in the basements of their houses, as the area came under tank fire. Television footage also showed smoke billowing from buildings under tank fire in the nearby district of Cizre. http://ekurd.net/erdogan-backs-criminal-probe-kurds-2016-01-05 Demirtaš u interjvuu za Al Monitor poručio AKP-u da neće uspeti da uništi kurdski pokret. Quote HDP leader says Ankara has 'neither the power nor means' to eliminate Kurdish movement Reports that the Turkish government plans to destroy the Kurdish movement in Turkey, similar to Sri Lanka’s crackdown on the Tamil Tigers, seem credible to Selahattin Demirtas, co-chair of the Kurdish-dominated Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP), who also cautions that any such operation is doomed to fail. In an interview with Al-Monitor, Demirtas also said Ankara’s security clampdown on the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) and increasing pressure on the HDP go hand in hand with efforts to suppress Kurdish self-rule in Syria, including the use of the Islamic State (IS) as a proxy. Demirtas asserted that Kurdish empowerment in the Middle East has reached a point of no return and that the international powers involved in the region should seek to develop strategic ties with the Kurds. http://www.al-monitor.com/pulse/originals/2016/01/turkey-pro-kurdish-party-leader-demirtas-pkk-tamil-tigers.html Edited January 5, 20169 yr by vememah
January 5, 20169 yr Quote More than 100 municipalities probed, ten mayors jailed in Turkey’s southeast Ten mayors from the Democratic Regions Party (DBP), the sister party of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP), have been suspended and detained, while 106 municipalities under the DBP have been subject to investigations on charges related to “autonomy,” “co-leadership” and “terror.” Eight mayors have been separately suspended, while one mayor was released on probation and another has remained under house arrest. Mayors have been detained on charges of “disrupting the unity and territorial integrity of the state,” “membership to a terrorist organization and making terrorist propaganda,” “acting as a human shield” and “providing logistical support to a terrorist organization.” Reveal hidden contents Reveal hidden contents Violence between Turkish security forces and militants of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) reignited in the summer of 2015, shattering a fragile peace process, dubbed a “resolution process” by governmental officials, after a two-and-a-half-year de facto period of non-conflict. With the restart of conflict, investigations against 106 municipalities held by the DBP have been launched by civil inspectors from the Interior Ministry and controllers from Interior Ministry’s Directorate General of Local Administrations as well as by prosecutors. All of these investigations still underway, with three cases investigating 11 provincial municipalities, including metropolitan municipalities in Diyarbakır, Mardin and Van, 68 investigating district municipalities and 27 investigating town municipalities. In addition to charges leading to the detainment of ten mayors, investigations also include charges such as “cemeteries allocated to PKK” members, “aiding and abetting a terrorist organizations” and “corruption.” Hakkari Mayor Dilek Hatipoğlu and Mayor Seyit Narin of Diyarbakır’s Sur district, which has been under a round-the-clock curfew since Dec. 2 as the army tries to push out PKK militants who have dug trenches and built barricades there and in other residential areas in the region, are among those ten mayors who have been both suspended and detained. Batman Mayor Sabri Özdemir and Cizre Mayor Leyla İmret are among those eight mayors who have been suspended. Mayor Abdulsamet Bilgin of Diyarbakır’s Dicle district has been released on probation, while Mayor Hüseyin Kılıç of Eruh district in Siirt has been under house arrest. In addition to those 10 mayors, 11 “co-mayors” and 44 members of municipal councils in the region have also been detained and sent to prison. The co-mayoral system de facto implemented by the DBP, which features a woman and a man holding a mayor post together, is particularly subject to many of the current investigations, with officials saying that the system constitutes “a crime” and is “not legal.” The HDP and the Peace and Democracy Party (BDP), one of the HDP’s forerunners, have also implemented co-leaderships in their parties. In the March 2014 local elections, they have extended the co-chair system to all levels of local administration. http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/more-than-100-municipalities-probed-ten-mayors-jailed-in-turkeys-southeast.aspx?pageID=238&nID=93408&NewsCatID=338
