Situation in Turkey

As it was earlier reported, on September 3 the statement of Diarbakir,
Osman Baydemir, about the town’s readiness to a war made a great
clamor among Turkish political circles. The "Grey Wolves" organization
marked that statement as a challenge against the Turkish people and
demanded the law-enforcement structures of Turkey to take measures
against the Mayor.

As CNN-Turk reports, on September 4, the Prosecutor’s Office of
Diarbakir started an investigation against Osman Baydemir, taking for
background his latest statement. The investigation will tell, whether
a criminal case is to be roused against him or not. To be reminded,
Osman Baydemir, a Kurd by origin, is a member of the "Democratic
Society" party, and Diarbakir is considered by Kurds the capital of
"Northern Kurdistan".
