Abdullah Öcalan given new 6-month ban on lawyers’ visits

Abdullah Öcalan has been given a new 6-month ban on lawyers’ visits. Asrın Law Office will appeal to the Constitutional Court against the decision.

According to Mezopotamya Agency, Abdullah Öcalan and the other three prisoners in Imrali, Ömer Hayri Konar, Veysi Aktaş and Hamili Yıldırım, have been given a new 6-month ban on lawyers’ visits.

The lawyers of Asrın Law Office applied to Bursa 2nd Execution Judgeship for a visit with Öcalan and the other prisoners, but instead they learned that a new 6-month ban had been given to their clients on 6 November. The lawyers were not informed about the reason for the ban.

The objections to the decision were rejected by Bursa High Criminal Court. The lawyers will now appeal to the Constitutional Court (AYM) against the decision.
