Turkish Assembly Rejects İnquiry İnto Southern Attacks

29.07.2015 23:19

Motion for parliamentary inquiry after border provinces hit by violence.

A motion calling for a parliamentary investigation into the spate of deadly attacks in Turkey's southern border provinces was rejected on Wednesday night.



The Republican People's Party (CHP) asked for the inquiry to "scrutinize the terror acts that have threatened social peace and claimed Turkish citizens' lives and to take necessary precautions."



The motion said measures taken to address the security threat - namely military action against Daesh and Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) militants in Syria and Iraq - had "failed to mitigate the danger".



An extraordinary session of the Grand National  Assembly saw CHP and People's Democratic Party (HDP) lawmakers vote in favor of an inquiry while the Justice and Development (AK) Party and some Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) deputies opposed it.



A suicide bomb attack in Suruc on July 20 killed 32 people, sparking a wave of killings across the southeast and airstrikes against Daesh and the PKK. - Ankara
