>Subject: "[Ozgurluk.Org]" DHKP-C ORGANISATION OF CAPTIVES ARE ON 5 DAY HUNGER >STRIKE TO SUPPORT FEHRIYE ERDAL > >FEHRIYE ERDAL MUST BE UNCONDITIONALLY SET FREE! > >Our comrade Fehriye Erdal is an anti-fascist, anti-imperialist >revolutionary. She is struggling for the independence of our homeland and >the liberation of our people. While honourably continuing the revolutionary >struggle, on September 26, 1999 she was captured by Belgian state forces. >Court proceedings established that there was no crime according to Begian >law but she was illegally and illegitimately imprisoned until August 16, >2000. The reason for this illegality is that our comrade is an >internationalist revolutionary waging a struggle against fascism in Turkey. >>From Fehriye Erdal's capture to the present, From the time Fehriye Erdal was >taken prisoner to the present, the Belgian government and secret services >have carried out all provocations in order to hand our comrade over to the >bloody murderers of fascism in Turkey. Her already illegal imprisonment was >extended and she was not released. Even the laws of Belgium required that >our comrade should be released. But by not doing this they trampled upon >their own laws. They tried to explain away this illegality with the pretext >of "security". The Belgian government and secret service personally deprived >our comrade of the security of her life with their provocational behaviour. >Because at the first opportunity fascism in Turkey wants to settle accounts >with our comrade by having her surrendered into their bloodstained hands. >In the face of all this, Fehriye Erdal started a hunger strike on July 14, >2000 in protest at the behaviour displayed by the Belgian government. >When their games were frustrated, they had to let our comrade out of prison >on August 16, 2000. But there was no end to the provocational behaviour. On >the one hand they said our comrade was under "house arrest", while they >showed their intentions once again by giving away the address of our comrade >which they were supposed to keep secret. >The aim of the Belgian government is clear. Since they could not dare to >engage in the openly illegal and illegitimate handing of our comrade over to >fascism in Turkey, they are instead creating new provocations. By stating >that "we cannot provide security for Fehriye Erdal in Belgium", they are >trying to create an atmosphere, which will expedite sending her to a third >country. In this way they are making plans to hand her over to the fascist >murderers of Turkey via the third country. >It should be known that it is the greatest crime against the peoples of the >world and humanity to collaborate with fascism and fascists. The criminal >nature of the Belgian government will never be forgotten by their own people >in particular and the peoples of Anatolia and the rest of the world. > >WE ARE ASKING! >Belgian government: why are you making such efforts to hand Fehriye over to >the fascist murderers? What interests of yours are served by this? What kind >of treaty on collaboration lies behind it? >Does the Belgian government have sovereignty in its own country? >Is the Belgian government incompetent in applying the requirements of its >own laws? >If the aim of the Belgian government is to spill Fehriye's blood, there is >no reason for them to wait. They should massacre Fehriye by themselves. >Because this is the effect of what they are doing! >Of course, since you violated your own laws when you were threatened by >fascism in Turkey, you wouldn't hesitate to be the hirelings of fascists. >It should be known that no Parti-Cephe supporters are afraid of death >threats. On the contrary when you evaluate our history you will see that we >have hundreds of martyrs in our decades-long struggle. Fehriye also is one >of our comrades who knows how to face death with honour wherever and >whenever necessary. >There is no point in prolonging this game any further. Either free our >comrade unconditionally, or slaughter her, so that you will win the approval >of fascism in Turkey. > >WE DEMAND! >- Fehriye Erdal must be immediately and unconditionally released; >- We only demand that the Belgian government abides by the laws of its own >country; >- We are not demanding that the Belgian government "protect" our comrade >Fehriye Erdal. Fehriye's security will be provided by our comrades in >Belgium. >- The Belgian government should abandon the contra-guerrilla provocations. >- The Belgian government should abandon the game of extraditing Fehriye to a >third country, which means handing Fehriye over to fascism in Turkey. > >WE CALL UPON >The Belgian people not to let their own country's laws and dignity be >trampled on for the sake of good relations between the Belgian government >and fascism in Turkey. The Belgian people who know fascism well from their >own experiences should not accept the dishonour of their own government's >collaboration with fascism. It should be known that the freedom or >imprisonment of Fehriye is at the same time a matter of whether or not the >dignity of the Belgian people will be trampled upon. The Belgian people >should not permit this illegality and indignity which their own government >is trying to foist on them. > >OUR CALL IS TO THOSE WHO HAVE HUMAN HONOUR! >Today, the provocations targeting Fehriye Erdal carried out by the Belgian >government in collaboration with fascism in Turkey are also targeting all >anti-fascists and anti-imperialists who are for the people, for justice, for >democracy and for legitimacy. >Our comrade is continuing a hunger strike which she started on July 14, 2000 >against the attacks and provocations targeting herself. We as the captives >of the Parti-Cephe from different prisons are starting a hunger strike, >which is currently to be of five days' duration, on August 24, 2000 to >support our comrade and provide for her unconditional release. >We call upon everyone from Belgium, Europe and the rest of the world to >raise the demand for unconditional release of Fehriye Erdal, who committed >no "crime" except to carry out a struggle for the independence and freedom >of our country from fascism. > >FREEDOM FOR FEHRIYE ERDAL! >EITHER FREEDOM OR DEATH! >DOWN WITH FASCISM, LONG LIVE OUR STRUGGLE! > >August 24, 2000 >DEVRIMCI HALK KURTULUS PARTISI-CEPHESI >Organisation of Captives > > _______________________________________ KOMINFORM P.O.
