‘We will continue to our struggle’

 

"It cannot be accepted that police raided our Central Governing Committee (MYK) member’s house as if  there is a crime in her house. They didn’t call her to the prosecutor’s office although they had her address and  contact information. They have should known that if they called her to the prosecutor office, she would have gone without hesitation. The intent of this arbitrary and lawlessness pressure is obvious! To declare the ordinary suspects as ‘criminals’, who can react against the unlawfulness of the state of emergency means to give judge decision to the ‘neighborhood’! It should be known that we, as Education and Science Workers' Union (Eğitim Sen) will defend law and democracy obstinately against ‘administration mind’, which the is arbitrary and disregards law go towards all opposition parties. We will continue our struggle with determination until the end of the pressure on all our members and managers, especially Ebru Yiğit."
