ANKARA - Journalists Habibe Eren, Deniz Nazlım and Berivan Altan, who sent a May Day message from Sincan Prison, said: "Free days are as close as our struggle, fascism will be defeated, long live the Free Press."
 
Mesopotamia Agency (MA) reporters Deniz Nazlım and Berivan Altan, who were arrested on October 29, 2022 as part of the Ankara-based investigation, and JINNEWS reporter Habibe Eren, sent a message to May 1, Unity, Struggle and Solidarity Day. The messages that journalists sent from Sincan Prison, where they were held, to the Confederation of Revolutionary Workers' Unions (DİSK) Press-İş Ankara Representative Office, were shared on the union's social media account.
 
Condemning the attacks on the Free Press, the journalists emphasized that their pens will not stay on the ground and that free days are as close as their struggles, and repeated the words of the arrested MA editor Abdurahman Gök, "Fascism will be defeated, long live the Free Press".
 
The messages from the journalists:
 
Habibe Eren: We welcome May 1 in prisons. Every day comes the news of the detention and arrest of our colleagues. Like all segments of society, Free Press workers are also attacked by the government. Those who think that they can silence the Free Press with such pressures and make it kneel will lose big as they are wrong.
 
Berivan Altan: We have full faith that the working people and colleagues who filled the 1 May squares against all these oppressions will be our voice and will expand the struggle of the Free Press. Free press will not be silenced on May 1 with our resilience and determination to fight.
 
Deniz Nazlım: We celebrate the 1st May Day of all workers and laborers. We participate in our struggle for democracy in Turkey, freedom of peoples and labor, if not physically, but spiritually. We send our greetings and hopes from the dungeon of Sincan to your hearts. As our dear imprisoned friend Abdurrahman Gök said, 'Fascism will be defeated, long live the Free Press.
