DEM Party Democratic Governance Council announced that İdil Mayor Türkan Kayır, who was referred to the DEM Party Central Disciplinary Board, and City Council Member Ekrem Şimşek, who was referred to the DEM Party Şırnak Provincial Disciplinary Board, have been expelled from the party.
In a statement made by the DEM Party, it was emphasized that Kayır and Şimşek acted with anti-party mentalities. The statement also pointed out that the constructive efforts and endeavors of the party were disregarded, stating, "Those who turn their backs on the people will have no standing with the public today or tomorrow."
The statement from the DEM Party included the following expressions:
"In the March 31, 2024 elections, the people of İdil have decisively expressed their will in favor of our party with a vote rate of 71.27%. After the elections, as DEM Party and its institutional structures, we have determined it as our fundamental principle to eliminate the damage caused by trustees in İdil over the past 8 years. However, we have seen that the damage caused by trustees over the years has been attempted to be continued by some individuals during this period.
"THERE HAVE BEEN APPROACHES ACTING WITH ANTI-PARTY MENTALITIES"
Unfortunately, during this 8-month period, there have been approaches that disregard the values and principles of our democratic struggle, prioritize serving the public, ignore the will of the elected, and attempt to manage the municipality through nepotistic relationships. The long-term constructive efforts and endeavors of our party have been disregarded, and a persistent approach has been presented. For this reason, İdil Co-Mayor Türkan Kayır has been referred to the DEM Party Central Disciplinary Board; City Council Member Ekrem Şimşek has been referred to the DEM Party Şırnak Provincial Disciplinary Board.
The ongoing disciplinary processes regarding Kayır and Şimşek have been evaluated and concluded by our boards. Our disciplinary boards have decided to expel Kayır and Şimşek from our party.
"WE WILL ACT TOGETHER WITH OUR PEOPLE"
Once again, we promise to fight against the understandings that exploit the values of this people for individual interests. Together with our council members, we will continue our democratic response and opposition in the İdil City Council and will act together with our people.
Those who turn their backs on the people will have no standing with the public today or tomorrow. The only request of the people of İdil from them is to resign from their positions. The will of the people of İdil, who have created value from difficult times and built a free life, should be left to the people of İdil."
