4 Questions Not Answered for 120 Days

Turkey Peace Assembly organized "We are talking about Uludere" meeting in order to remind Uludere Massacre at its 120. day.

Member of Parliamentary Human Rights Sub-Commission, Republican People's Party (CHP) Ankara deputy Levent Gök, businessman İbrahim Betil, Şırnak Bar President Nuşirevan Elçi, Mazlum-Der General Vice President Cüneyt Sarıyaşar and the author of Radikal newspaper Ezgi Başaran were speakers of the meeting. Dr. Gençay Gürsoy moderated the meeting. The meeting at Taksim Hill started with the documentary "Selam'ın Annesi (Mother of Selam)".

Deputy Gök promised to complete the report regarding the massacre that killed 34 people in December 28, 2011.  "I promised to those families when I was at Uludere and now I also give the same promise to you."

"We are after 4 questions as commission: Which unit evaluated the Heron scene?  Who made the target detection and told that those people were "dangerous" or "terrorist"? Who gave the order to shoot? Did they get permission for 'the operation carried out abroad'?

Gök added that "It takes just 4 minutes to answer these questions;  they try to hide their big weakness of intelligence"

"First they said the people who died were terrorists, then they hided that 18 of them were just children. They tried to cover up that these people were just human beings just like us"

Gök talked about the day he watched the scenes of bombing with Uludere commission: "It was so clear that those people were just villagers, not dangerous people. This massacre is due to miscommunication in between agencies. Those 34 people could be saved with just one phone call."

Gök, answered bianet's question regarding their works about Uludere issue as follows:

"We represent the party in this Commission. The party is waiting for our efforts, works. The Commission is not isolated from CHP. "(IC)
