The written statement was shared with the title of “Semra Güzel is our will!” by HDP Women's Press Office and the statement said, "Our Diyarbakır MP Semra Güzel, who was targeted by the AKP-MHP male alliance, was once again usurped yesterday with a dirty plot."

RESPONDING TO SOYLU: YOU SHOULD ARREST THE KILLERS OF WOMEN, NOT WOMEN

 

Responding to Minister of Interior Süleyman Soylu's targeting of Güzel, the statement included the following statements: "While people involved in all kinds of corruption and theft continue to commit crimes in this country, we warn the Minister of Criminal Affairs, who is targeting our MP: You should arrest the murderers of women, not women! You will not be able to cover up the crimes you have committed by inciting nationalism, racism, sexism and misogyny in society with social media posts.

 

SEMRA GÜZEL IS OUR WILL

 

Women will never kneel before these dirty policies of yours. We will continue to say 'Semra is our will' wherever we are. The male power, which has registered misogyny every time, should know very well that women will not give up. Semra Güzel is the will of the people and the women!”
