Çetin Dedeoğulları and Erdal Rifatoğulları, two members of the Kurdish family massacred in Konya, and Ebru Akkal, a lawyer for the family, met HDP Group Deputy Chairs Danış-Beştaş and Oluç today, on January 19.

The Konya Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office has completed its investigation into the attack that claimed the lives of seven people from Dedeoğulları family in Konya. Their lawyer says the indictment was given to the state-run news agency before them.

As part of the investigation into the killing of seven people from the Dedeoğulları family in Konya province, two more people have been arrested, bringing the total number of arrested suspects to 13 since early August.

The Konya Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office has rejected the request of the Dedeoğulları family’s lawyer for taking the camera footage and WhatsApp messages added to the file as evidence. The Office has asked for the legal opinion of the Justice Ministry.

An investigation has been launched against JinNews reporter Öznur Değer over the news that she shared about the massacre of 7 Kurdish citizens from the Dedeoğulları family in Konya’s Meram.

The attorney of the slain family has talked about the latest developments in the investigation into the killing of a Kurdish family in Konya, central Turkey.

Erol Şen, a relative of the 7 Kurdish family members killed in a racist attack in Konya, says, “Yaşar Dedeoğulları was told, ‘Give us your house and go, we will not let you reside here.’ They were the only Kurdish family living in that neighbourhood.”

In a statement released by the Konya Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office, it has been announced that “with the detention of one more person from the family of the suspect, who is still a fugitive, the total number of the detained has increased to 14.”
