Kurdish activist Yusuf Iba has been on hunger strike for 48 days demanding the end of isolation against Kurdish People's Leader Abdullah Öcalan.

DTK co-chair and HDP Hakkari MP Leyla Güven has led the hunger strike demanding the end of isolation against Öcalan. She is on her 114th day of fast while hundreds in prisons and around the world have followed her example.

Yusuf Iba in Toronto, Canada has also joined Güven’s action.

Garnett Genuis, MP for Canada's main opposition party, the Conservative party, has visited Iba and after his talk with the Kurdish activist he said that next week he will move a motion to parliament to raise the issue of the hunger strike and the demand of activists.
