Politicians, intellectuals: Turkey refuses to meet with Ocalan for fear of his directives to the people

Since August 7, 2019, the lawyer and the families of leader Abdullah Ocalan have been reviewing the Public Prosecution in the Turkish city of Bursa, to visit him, but the request is met with a refusal, as the last request of the lawyers was rejected by the Public Prosecution in the Turkish city of Bursa on January 31 last.

Politicians and intellectuals of al-Shahba and Afrin cantons condemned the isolation, and rejected requests to meet in their conversation with ANHA's agency

Politician Ahmed Suleiman said: “For years, the Turkish state has prevented the leader’s lawyer and his relatives from meeting him. They want to undermine the will of the people. Their goals here have not been achieved as a result of the leader’s thought and philosophy spreading among society.”

He added: We are determined and we will not retreat from our goal, and we will continue with all activities until its liberation.

Ahmed Suleiman appealed to the international organizations (Sbeiti) and human and civil rights organizations, to intervene to lift the isolation and liberate the leader and hold Turkey accountable for that.

As for the politician Suleiman Jaafar, he said: The purpose of the Turkish state of isolation and preventing meeting with him is to remove him from his resisting people, because she is afraid of his directives that the people interact with the leader, "all his directions are correct from the first day of his arrest."

While the member of the Union of Intellectuals, Avendar Heftaro, noted, "This isolation imposed on the leader includes all peoples. If the world reads the messages of the leader to the people, peoples' fraternity, justice, freedom of life, he will reach a solution to crises and societal issues."

He appealed to the human rights organizations to work for the freedom of leader Abdullah Ocalan.
