The trial of the 16 people from Roboski who commemorated the ones killed in the Roboski massacre continued today (October 4).
While the defendants are charged with "propagandizing for a terrorist organization", the Şırnak 2nd Heavy Penal Court has ruled that the deficient documents shall be rectified. As reported by Mezopotamya Agency (MA), the court was expected to hand down its ruling today.
The next hearing will be held on January 24, 2022.

34 citizens from the villages of Ortasu/Roboski and Gülyazı/Bujeh in Uludere district lost their lives in a bombardment of Turkish Armed Forces' jets in Turkey's Kurdish-majority province of Şırnak on December 28, 2011. The judicial process is about to end in impunity.
Demanding that the responsible parties be put on trial and the massacre be brought to light, the families from Roboski have once again applied to the Constitutional Court. The trial may begin again in the event that the top court gives a ruling of rights violations.
