Adıyaman was taken into custody this morning (December 19) in Antep and was delivered to Ankara.
Charged standing trial before Ankara 8th Criminal Court of Justice charged with "[illegal] organization propaganda" in his speeches, Adıyaman denied the accusations and noted;
"I have attended the funeral ceremony of the person called Hikmet Çark yet he is not a member of the PKK/KCK (Kurdistan Workers' Party/Kurdistan Communities Union) like claimed. I am a legist and I was Çark's attorney in 2014-2015. He stood trial charged with being a member of an illegal organization. He was arrested and later released. Yet he was convicted. His file was submitted to the Supreme Court of Appeal".
Adıyaman was released after giving testimony.
As of today, there are 12 arrested HDP MPs including party's Co-Chairs Selahattin Demirtaş and Figen Yüksekdağ. (ÇT/DG)
