DIYARBAKIR-Kurdistan-Turkey
- An unusual event
reminding the film 'Undispatched Letters' acted by
Türkan Soray and Kadir Inanir, is being experienced
in the E Type Prisons of Elbistan and Malatya.
121 letters were not given to Murat Eser (32)
sentenced to life imprisonment although they were
marked as 'seen' by the prison directorate. The
letters in question were ruined and sent back to his
family.
The events are taking place between
Elbistan-Malatya. The letters were sent in 2002 and
2003 while he was in the prison but were not given
to Murat Eser and the case appeared when his father
visited him. Coming to the prison to see his son,
the father Hüseyin Eser (53) was given the letters
back. Then the father went to Diyarbakir Human
Rights Association and consulted for help.
What might be the problem with the letters sent by
the father to the son'
After he received the letters which were ruined and
marked as 'seen' he was very surprised. He said all
the letters were sent by the family or the relatives
17 of which were belong to him and protest the case
saying what might be the objection to the letters
sent by a retired teacher to his son.
Letters are vital for political detainees
He said the son was not informed by the directorate
and said their freedom of speech was restricted then
added "Communication is a need like water and bread.
Letters are vital for political detainee. If a
detainee was restricted to see his family that means
one of his vital points is cut off. I condemn the
directorate for their incorrect behavior in those
days in which we are trying to join EU."
HRA: We will apply for crime detection
The secretary of Diyarbakir Branch of HRA, Ali
Akıncı claimed the case as illegal and said: " The
communication freedom can not be restrained in
anywhere in the world. If there had been any
chargeable offence in the letters the directorate
could have applied for crime detection. We will
apply for the officials who behaved in an
anti-democratic way by not giving the letters to the
detainees.
Execution Directorate: There may be a mistake
An authorized member from the execution directorate
of the prison, Katip Ahmet said "We do not give
illegal letters to the detainees and we inform them
about that. There may be a mistake done in this
case. If there is not any illegal problem, it is a
mistake"
