	We Will Stop Femicide Platform (KCDP) announced its October report. According to the report, 48 women were murdered in October, 23 women died suspiciously. While 10 of the women were murdered on the pretext that they wanted a divorce, refused to reconcile, marry or have a relationship, 3 on economic grounds, 3 on the pretext of causing suicide and 1 on the pretext of insulting them, the reasons for the murder of 31 women could not be determined. 

	 

	EMPHASIS ON STRUGGLE

	 

	The report includes the following statements: “The fight to stop femicides in Turkey has been going on for 14 years. As the Platform, since we identified the need in 2010, we have been disclosing femicide data to the public. Instead of explaining how many women have been killed, why, how and by whom, the Ministry of Interior distorts the facts by saying that the data on femicides are incorrectly prepared. It is the duty of the state not only to disclose the reality of femicides and suspicious deaths of women but also to implement concrete solutions to stop femicides. We will continue to fight for the mobilization of all relevant ministries and mechanisms to fulfil this duty.”
