The first hearing of the lawsuit filed against Diyarbakır Co-Mayor Selçuk Mızraklı due to “making terrorist organisation propaganda” was held at Ankara 28th Assize Court. The charges imposed against him were based on “his participation in an event at the People’s Democratic Party (HDP) Diyarbakır Provincial Organization,” “a Twitter post he made for Kurdish activist Ramin Hossein Penahi, who was executed in Iran,” “attending a commemoration,” participating in a statement made for the People’s Democratic Party (HDP) on the October 9 operation,” “participating in the HDP conference, ‘Middle East Crisis and Democratic Nation Resolution’”. He was arrested within another file and was replaced with a trustee; therefore he attended the hearing from the Kayseri Bünyan Prison Type-T No.2 through the Audiovisual Informatics System (SEGBIS). The next hearing will be held on January 13, 2021.
