Şenyaşar family: We’ll never submit to persecution

The Justice Vigil launched on March 9, 2021, by Emine Şenyaşar who lost her husband and two sons in an armed attack on 14 June 2018 in the Suruç district of Urfa, and her son Ferit Şenyaşar who was injured in the same attack, marks its 345th day in front of the courthouse in Urfa. The attack involved the bodyguards and relatives of AKP Deputy İbrahim Halil Yıldız.

The mother and her son are continuing the vigil in front of the courthouse with a banner with pictures of the family members killed in the armed attack.

“The Governor on the right invites tourists to the ancient city for Göbekli Tepe which is considered as the zero point in history. The chief prosecutor on the left makes history in front of the Urfa Courthouse. Tourists who want to witness history come to the courthouse. We will never submit to persecution,” the family wrote on their social media account.
