Buse's friends and lawyer Eren Keskin have announced the establishment of a solidarity network for prisoner Buse Aydın, who is being held at Metris prison and wants to have sex transition surgery.

Transgender inmate Buse Aydın, who is on a death fast because her gender reassignment operation is blocked, has sent a letter, saying, "A trans murder will be committed by favour of the Ministry of Justice and the judicial system."

Transgender inmate Buse, who has not been permitted to undergo gender transition surgery despite the related court ruling and medical report, has been on hunger strike. Her friends and attorney have made a call and said, “Give a voice to Buse.”
