The number of prisoners on indefinite non-alternating hunger strikes protesting the isolation imposed upon Kurdish People’s Leader Abdullah Ocalan has risen to at least 331. It is not certain yet how many prisoners joined in following the decision by PKK and PAJK prisoners to go on hunger strikes on March 1.

The hunger strike launched by Democratic Society Congress (DTK) Co-chair and Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) MP Leyla Guven on November 8 continues to spread.

Acording to Lawyers for Freedom Association (OHD) data, indefinite non-alternating hunger strikes have been launched in 66 prisons since December 16. Their list includes names of 331 prisoners.

Deniz Kaya issued a statement in the name of PKK and PAJK prisoners on February 26 and announced that hunger strikes were to be launched in all prisons on March 1. The OHD list doesn’t include how many prisoners joined the hunger strikes after this statement yet, but the list is expected to be updated soon.
