“Silent protest” by Şenyaşar family

On the 556th day of the sit-in protest, the Şenyaşar family held a silent protest to demand justice for their killed relatives.

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 556th day.

Today, Emine Şenyaşar stayed at her home in Suruç due to her health problems. Her son Ferit Şenyaşar came in front of the courthouse in the morning to demand justice again.

Ferit Şenyaşar held a silent protest in front of the courthouse since they have received no answer for their demand for justice.

“We chose to remain silent”

“There is nothing to say anymore. For 556 days, we have demanded justice; however, the authorities have played ‘ostrich’. Today, we chose to remain silent during our sit-in protest. #SilentProtest for justice,” the Şenyaşar wrote on their social media account today.
