Şenyaşar family demands justice for 646 days

“What we demand for ourselves, we demand for all humanity,” the Şenyaşar family says on the 646th day of their sit-in protest.

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 646th day.

“We have been struggling in front of the Urfa Courthouse for 646 days. What we demand for ourselves, we demand for all humanity. Our demand is JUSTICE. The 'superiors' who took Themis's sword from her hand continue to control the judiciary with their instructions,” the Şenyaşar family posted today on their social media account.
