Pro-Kurd party says Turkey approves visit to jailed PKK founder
Turkey’s Justice Ministry has approved a request by the pro-Kurdish DEM party to visit jailed PKK founder Abdullah Ocalan who is serving life in solitary confinement, a party spokesman says.
The spokesman confirms receiving “a call [from the Justice Ministry], there will be a visit tomorrow [Saturday] or Sunday as long as the weather is not bad.” Ocalan has been held in a Turkish prison near Istanbul for the past 25 years.
