The Human Rights Association and the Saturday Mothers/People are worried that a blind eye is being turned to the tampering with evidence from the excavated “death wells”. They have called on President Gül to intervene.

After the find of bones and flannel on 9 March in one well, the opening of another well has revealed bones, hair and clothing.

Reporters were kept away from the wells in the military zone of Silopi where excavations were carried out under the supervision of the prosecution and lawyers.
