My son has been in solitary confinement for four years upon the instructions of superiors. I request immediate release for my son! Justice for the Şenyaşar family, justice for everyone!”

The Şenyaşar family requested a meeting with judges; however, their request was rejected.

“Has anyone heard our voice?”

“I am Emine Şenyaşar. I am in front of the Antep Regional Court of Justice to demand the release of my son, who has been held in solitary confinement for four years upon the instructions of superiors. We have held our sit-in protest demanding justice for about a year, has anyone heard our voice?” the Şenyaşar family posted on their social media account today.
