ANKARA - HDP MP Hüseyin Kaçmaz who witnessed Ömer Faruk Gergerlioğlu being dragged into custody by the police inside the parliament, told what happened was worse than what happened back in 1994 and said: "They didn't even let him wear his clothes or perform his morning prayer. They dragged him away."
 
Staging a sit in at the parliament after his status as a member of the parliament was stripped of, HDP Kocaeli MP Ömer Faruk Gergerlioğlu was taken into custody by the police inside the parliament building. Witnessing those moments, HDP Şırnak MP Hüseyin Kaçmaz noted that Gergerlioğlu was taken into custody by force.
 
IT'S WORSE THAN 1994
 
"Unfortunately, it was worse than 1994 which was brought the the agenda of the world. Police also assaulted me and Filiz Kerestecioğlu. They dragged us, tried to stop us, tried to trip us up. They tried to stop us from filming their violence and prevent us from exposing this shame. They shut down the HDP group hall. Police officers are now waiting in front of it. Our group deputy is held there. They don't allow him to go out of the room. Our friend Ömer almost fell down the stairs.
 
HE WAS FORCED INTO A POLICE CAR
 
Dozens of police officers was pulling and pushing and trying to drag him. He was forced into a police car and taken to the police station. We will continue to fight against this cruelty and unlawfulness. We are also denouncing those fascist to the public. Our friend Ömer was also taken to the police station. We will now go there too in solidarity."
