He talked about the rights violations he experienced in a phone call with his family. Bulut, who was transferred to Adana Kürkçüler F Type Closed Prison on 5 January, and not to Tekirdağ F Type Prison, said that he started an indefinite and non-alternating hunger strike on 13 January against the prison administration.

Bulut said that he will go on a death fast on Monday because his demands were not met.
