An indictment was being prepared against the three Peace Mothers who were arrested after the military attack in the village of Bilêxşe. The mothers were deported to another prison 9 days before the hearing, without informing their families and lawyers.
With the military destruction operation launched on 22 June in the village of Bilêxşê in Gerçüş (Kercews) district of Batman (Elîh), entry and exit to the village was banned, and the blockade lasted until 6 July.
The 11 people taken into custody in the house raids following the attack were released, but upon the objection made by the Batman Chief Public Prosecutor's Office, nine people, including Peace Mothers Emine Kaya (54), Nezete Bölek (58) and Sare Kaya (59), were remanded in custody.
An indictment was prepared against the mothers held in Batman M Type Closed Prison. The indictment accusing the Peace Mother of "aiding an illegal organization" was accepted by the Batman 2nd High Criminal Court.
The first hearing will be held on 24 October. Nine days before the hearing, however, the three Peace Mothers were deported to Erzincan Women's Closed Prison. It was also confirmed that the mothers' families and lawyers were not informed about the deportations.
