The document also mentions that the delegation informed Abdullah Öcalan that some academics had reached out to Ahmet Özer, and although they did not gain much new perspective from the information produced in the name of science, they said they gained new perspectives when they focused on your books. Abdullah Öcalan reportedly acknowledged the importance of this situation and gave instructions to the delegation. TWO CRIMINAL ELEMENTS IN THE HTS RECORDSThe document states that the HTS records resulting from the communication surveillance conducted on the suspect Özer were included, and it was noted that two criminal elements were found in these conversations. The content of the conversation included information that a person called Özer to inform him that M.K.'s mother had died.
