“The authorities have not responded to us yet. The persons in the Parliament have gone on holiday by leaving the families in the streets. Is this conscience? Everyone keeps silent against the demands of the families. We have taken to the streets and repeated our demands for eight months. We say it is enough. All we want is the release of sick prisoners and the prisoners, who are not released despite having completed their sentences. The authorities are blind and unconcerned against our demands. This situation should end now,” the statement said.
