DİYARBAKIR - On the 35th day of the Justice Watch, the relatives of the prisoners once again voiced their demands and said, "Everyone should add their voices to ours. We must be the voice of the prisoners."
 
The Justice Watch, which was initiated by the relatives of the prisoners for the treatment of the sick prisoners in various prisons in Turkey, and for the release the prisoners who are not released despite they served their sentence continues on its 35th day. Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) Çermik District Organisation executives and HDP Municipal Council members who were replaced by a trustee have visited the families in Diyarbakır Bar Association during the day.
 
ISOLATION MUST END
 
Speaking at the visit, HDP Çermik District Co-chair Berat Can commemorated those who lost their lives. Underlining that they are perfectly aware of the isolation imposed on the prisoners in İmralı, Can said: "Just like you, we want the isolation in prisons to end. We are here for you." 
 
DON'T REMAIN SILENT
 
A relative of a prisoner, Fevziye Kolakan said: "We want our children and the elderly to be released. A lot of prisoners whose sentences have finished are not released. Our most crucial demand it the release of sick prisoners. If they will die, they should die in our homes, not alone in a cell. We want to get them treated. I am calling on to the authorities and the families of ill prisoners. Don't remain silent anymore."
 
'WE ARE HERE FOR THE PRISONERS NOT TO DIE IN PRISON'
 
Pointing out to the fact that 7 ill prisoners have died in prisons in the last month, İnci Güler said: "The prison administration approaches political prisoners differenly than ordinary prisoners. They released thousands of murderers and sex offenders. Political prisoners and Kurdish prisoners are held in prison even though they are seriously ill or old. We started the Justice Watch to stop these deaths. We are on the 35th day today and 7 prisoners have died since the day we started. We need everyone to add their voice to ours. We have to be the voice of the prisoners."
