A group has attacked the building of Communication Faculty in Ankara University with stones, wounding three students.

Speaking to bianet, a student who witnessed the incident said:

“The school is very crowded due to week of exams. A group of nationalists came in front of the Communication Faculty building. They were chanting slogans against [PKK Leader Abdullah] Öcalan. The information that the attack occurred because of the Ramadan is not true. They had iron clubs in their hands. The leftist students in the faculty responded. They set barricades to the door.

“Special security officials fled without intervening. The police arrived half an hour later. They continued throwing stones for half an hour. The police saw who threw the stones and used pepper gas. They didn’t detain anyone”. (BK/TK)
