In Afyonkarahisar, the families of martyrs and veterans gathered in front of Anıt Park to protest against MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli, who drew attention with his statements regarding terrorist leader Abdullah Öcalan.

"THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS FOR BETRAYAL TO THE HOMELAND"

İsmail Kumartaşlı, the President of the Turkey War Disabled Veterans, Martyrs' Widows and Orphans Association Afyonkarahisar Branch, stated here, "We gathered today to remind those who shamelessly, without sadness or thought, say 'let the baby killer be free, the right to hope, let house arrest be given,' and those who brought the Imralı murderer into the national agenda and declared him a peace envoy. Undoubtedly, the greatest desire of us, the families of martyrs and veterans, is to end terrorism. It is that no family experiences the same pain. However, the way to achieve this is not to grant freedom to a baby killer. The veteran assembly should not be subjected to a terrorist. There should be no disrespect to our history or the memory of our martyrs. What has been tried should not be tried again. It should not be forgotten that these sacred lands of our homeland are not only the legacy of our ancestors but also the trust of our children. In the tradition of the Turk, there is no forgiveness for betrayal to the homeland," he expressed.

"TERRORISM CANNOT BE NEGOTIATED, IT MUST BE FOUGHT"

Continuing his statement, Kumartaşlı called on state officials, "Let’s end and abolish terrorism together with the families of martyrs, veterans, and the noble Turkish nation. Give us, the families of martyrs and veterans, a voice as well. Let’s go to the nation. Let our families of martyrs decide how the murderer of our martyrs will be punished. This is also a principle in our religion. If mothers forgive, let him be released. If they do not forgive, let him be hanged. Terrorism cannot be negotiated, it must be fought. Do not let history repeat itself. Because we are the ones who suffer the renewed pains with every attempt," he said.

THEY LEFT A WREATH

Veterans and martyr families silently walked to the MHP Provincial Presidency with a black wreath that read 'It was inappropriate' after the "Respect for the Martyr, Curse for Terror" march held at Anıtpark.
