300 Intellectuals Make A Declaration To Support Ergenekon Investigation

300 hundred people, among them many academicians, jurists, rights defenders, artists and journalists, made a declaration regarding deepening the Ergenekon investigation.

According to the participants, “Ergenekon indictment has caught one of the arms of the octopus. However, it gives the impression that it will not try to catch the rest of the arms and the body. This suspicion should be addressed.” They believe that the opportunity to become a clean society, which was missed at Susurluk and Şemdinli incidents, may present itself one more time.

Believing that the real winners in this case will be the citizens and “our democracy and future”, the intellectuals invite everyone who wants to live in a country where democracy, freedom and the rule of law are upheld to follow the case closely.

The declaration calls upon all the institutions, whether civil or military, to show the necessary determination to keep the case alive and deepen it to reveal the rest of the connections. (TK/TB)
