News Center- The Free Women’s Movement (Kurdish: Tevgera Jinên Azad-TJA) has released a written statement condemning the removal of the mayor of the municipality in Hakkari and the appointment of the trustee to the municipality.

Call to struggle against the regime of trustee

As part of the Collapse Plan, the AKP-MHP government has usurped the will of the people, especially women and seized the Hakkari Municipality by appointing a trustee to the municipality, the statement says, stressing that Mehmet Sıddık Akış, Co-mayor of the city of Hakkari (Kurdish: Colemêrg) was detained unlawfully.

“We believe that our people, especially women, will defend their will in Colemêrg as they did in Van and Hilvan. We call on our people, especially women and all democratic organizations, to struggle against the regime of trustee.”
