We deeply concern about the security conditions of our leadership after the attempted coup on July 15 in Turkey. We carried out the campaign for more than three months to lift the aggravated isolation imposed upon our leadership. We’ll send these signatures to the ECHR, CPT and the relevant institutions to fulfill their duty.

“Mr. Öcalan can determine the future of the world and everybody should take action for him. We particularly call on the CPT to make necessary explanations about their visit to Imralı Prison on May.”
