10 years of imprisonment. 10 years of injustice.
@hdpdemirtas, former co-chair of our sister party HDP (now @DEMGenelMerkezi), is one of the many victims of Erdoğan’s crackdown on the democratic opposition. We have repeatedly called for his release and condemn the continued persecution of opposition leaders and members in Türkiye.
