Koma Hevra members who performed songs in front of thousands of people at a concert organized by the Amed Metropolitan Municipality in Şêx Sêîd Square in Amed on Sunday were taken into custody after a solidarity visit they paid to the Mesopotamian Language and Culture Research Association (MED-DER).
It was learned that group members Zeynep Doğan, Gencay Morkoç and Yusuf Keleş were detained on the charge of “making propaganda for an illegal organization” due to the songs they performed at the concert on Sunday.
The group members who were taken to the Provincial Police Department were released after giving their statements on Monday evening.
DEM said in a statement: “The AKP systematically continues its anti-Kurdish policies and attacks on the Kurdish language and culture. Just as our people have resisted attacks on the Kurdish language for years and kept their language and culture alive, they will continue to do so.”
