A lawsuit was filed against Van Mayor Bedia Özgökçe Ertan, who was dismissed by the Interior Ministry and was replaced with a trustee on August 19, 2019, with an imprisonment claim for up to 30 years. In the indictment accepted by Van 7th Assize Court, Ertan is charged with “illegal organisation membership,” “making illegal organisation propaganda,” “praising the offense and the offender” and “public incitement towards resentment and hostility” due to the events she participated in as she was the People’s Democratic Party (HDP) Van MP. The first hearing will be held on December 25th.
