Senyaşar family’s Justice Vigil continues on its 356th day

The Justice Vigil carried out by the Şenyaşar family has reached day 355. The vigil was launched on 9 March 2021 by Emine Şenyaşar, who lost her husband and two sons as a result of the attack carried out by AKP Deputy İbrahim Halil Yıldız’s bodyguards and relatives, in Suruç, province of Urfa, on 14 June 2018.

The vigil has been carried out since then in front of the Urfa Courthouse by Emine Şenyaşar and her son Ferit, who survived the attack. 

As the courthouse is closed at the weekend, Emine and Ferit Şenyaşar continue their vigil at their house in Suruç.

The family shared a post on their social media accounts: “In a country where the judiciary is not independent, only those in prison do not lose their freedom. If there is no justice, the whole society is under the pressure of the oppressors. Those who consent to oppression re like those carrying it out.”
