EBRU TIMTIK
Kürd Avukat - Hukukçu Aktivist
27.08.2020
TARİHİMİZİ BİLMEDİĞİMİZDEN DÜŞMANI TANIMIYORUZ
Önce Ebru Timtik ve ondan önceki kürd aktivistlerin Türkiye'de demokratik mücadele denen yanlış yolda ölümleri çok büyük bir gaflet ve kayıptır. Demek ki tarihimizi bilmiyoruz. Eğer tarihimizi bilmiş olsaydık, işgalci katil türklerin Dersim'de savunmasız kürd halkına 1938'de yaptığı soykırım ve katliamlardan bir ders çıkarmış olurduk ki, istilacı katil türk devletiyle demokratik yollarla DEĞİL, ancak ve ancak onun kullandığı zora karşı ZOR KULLANMAK YOLUYLA mücadele edildiğini öğrenmiş olurduk. O zaman ölünürse de sonuç getirecek olan doğru bir yolda ''ölmüş'' olurduk. Bütün barışçıl ve demokratik yolların tamamen kapatılmış olmasından dolayı zora karşı zor kullanmak kaçınılmazdır, hele hele işgalci-istilacı türk devletine karşı.
Neticesi Türkiye'de sadece ölüm olan demokratik mücadele yolunda DÜŞMEK yerine, neticesi garanti ÖZGÜRLÜK olan ZOR KULLANARAK MÜCADELE ETMEK YOLUNDA “ölünürse”, ebediyen KALKMAK olan bu yolda 'ölünmüş' olur. Tabii ki o zaman bu ölüm değil TAMI TAMINA YAŞAM demektir.
Kürdler tarihlerini bilmedikleri için, düşmanlarını vede dostlarını ne yazık ki tanımıyorlar. Atatürk gibi en büyük bir kürd katiline, Erdolf karşıdır diye sahip çıkmakta çok büyük bir gaflet ve delalettir. Çünkü Atatürk yüzbinlerce masum kürdü katletmişti.
Istanbul police fired teargas and chased away hundreds of mourners on Friday during the burial of a Kurdish lawyer who died on the 238th day of a hunger strike she staged to protest her jailing on terror charges.
Friends said Ebru Timtik weighed just 30 kilogrammes at the time of her death late Thursday, which drew condemnation from international lawyers associations and the EU.
Police fired teargas as Timtik's friends and supporters approached a cemetery on the northern edge of Istanbul where her body was buried, an AFP team on the ground said.
"Ebru Timtik is immortal" and the "murderous state will be accountable" supporters chanted after laying her lawyer's robe and flowers on her grave.
Police armed with anti-riot shields threatened to attack the crowd unless they stopped chanting the slogans and chased after them after the ceremony. An AFP reporter saw one young boy detained.
The European Union said Timtik's death highlighted "serious shortcomings" in Turkey's justice system.
"Ebru Timtik's hunger strike for a fair trial and its tragic outcome painfully illustrate the urgent need for the Turkish authorities to credibly address the human rights situation in the country," EU spokesman Peter Stano said.
In 2019, an Istanbul court handed multiple sentences to 18 lawyers, including Timtik, on charges of "forming and running a terror group" and "membership in a terror group".
Timtik, who had been initially detained in September 2018, was sentenced to 13 years and six months in prison, which prompted her and some other lawyers to start a hunger strike in February.
She had been jailed in Silivri - a huge court and prison complex on the outskirts of Istanbul.
Last October, an appeals court upheld the lawyers' jail sentences.
Timtik, who turned her hunger strike into a death fast together with another lawyer, Aytac Unsal, was moved from the prison to a hospital in July.
The pair were consuming only liquids and vitamins, and a forensic report showed at the time that their condition was "not suitable" for a continued stay in prison.
The Council of Bars and Law Societies of Europe (CCBE), which represents bars in 45 European countries, expressed its "shock" in a letter to Turk President Erdogan.
It urged Erdogan to save Unsal from a similar fate by guaranteeing him a fair trial.

Ahead of Timtik's burial, police used teargas while forcefully dispersing around 100 of her supporters as they tried to gain access to her body outside an Istanbul forensic lab.
A funeral ceremony was held later at an Alevi worship house (Kurds with NON-.Muslim Faith) Police sealed off the area and deployed several water cannon trucks while a police helicopter circled overhead.
Timtik's friends and supporters had feared that her body would be buried in secret, and around 300 people gathered outside the forensic centre when news of her death first emerged on Thursday night.
"When Kurds become martyrs ... (authorities) hijack bodies and bury them at unknown spots at midnight," Sinan Zincir, lawyer and friend of Timtik, told AFP on Thursday night.
"We are here to prevent such a case."
Opposition parties forcefully condemned the death of Timtik, who friends said was born in 1978.
"Ebru Timtik was massacred by the tyrants in power!" said her driends.
Turkey has in the past seen hunger strikes launched by Kurdish political groups.
Last year, thousands of prisoners ended their hunger strike against the conditions of jailed Kurdish polıtıcal prısoners around 200 days into their protest.
