ERBIL — The Diyarbakir 9th High Criminal Court on Wednesday issued an arrest warrant for former member of Turkish Parliament Hatice Kocaman from the pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP).
Kocaman is accused by the Turkish court of membership in an “armed terrorist organization” which was denied by the former MP’s lawyer during a hearing on Wednesday.
According to media reports, the court has postponed the hearing and issued a warrant to detain Kocaman until the second court session.
