HOW DID THE İMRALI PROCESS BEGIN?

The process began with the call made by MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli on October 22. In his statement at the party's group meeting, Bahçeli said, "If the isolation of the terrorist leader is lifted, let him come and speak at the TBMM DEM Party Group Meeting, proclaiming that terrorism has completely ended and the organization has been dissolved. If he shows this determination and resolve, let the legal regulation regarding the use of the 'right to hope' be made, and let the way for him to benefit from it be opened wide." Shortly after this statement, Bahçeli called for permission to be granted to the DEM Party delegation to go to İmralı.

Following the permission, the DEM Party delegation held a meeting with terrorist leader Öcalan in İmralı on December 28, after a 4.5-year hiatus.
