After the objections of officials from Turkey to the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) regarding the second release decision for Demirtaş, a statement came from Demirtaş's lawyer.
It was reported that Turkey requested the Grand Chamber of the ECHR to reconsider the violation decision made by the ECHR's Second Chamber regarding former HDP Co-Chair Selahattin Demirtaş.
Regarding the decision, the DEM Party stated, "ECHR should 'immediately release' him; the Ministry of Justice insists on continuing the unlawfulness. The decision is very clear: dear Selahattin Demirtaş must be released. Insisting on not recognizing international legal decisions means nothing but confessing to unlawfulness."
"OUR RELEASE APPLICATION IS STILL IN THE COURT OF APPEALS"
Following these developments, Demirtaş's lawyer Mahsuni Karaman made a post on his social media account. Karaman stated, "The government's objection to the ECHR decision does not eliminate the obligation to comply with the decision. The application we made for the release of Mr. Demirtaş and his friends is still under review by the Court of Appeals. Returning to the law is always possible. Why not right now.."
