HDP Co-Chair Yüksekdağ's adviser sought after alleged PKK propaganda

Police are investigating Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) Co-Chair Figen Yüksekdağ's adviser Sıtkı Güngör due to a tweet that allegedly contained PKK propaganda he posted on his official Twitter account following the PKK's deadly attack in the Çınar district of Diyarbakır last week.

Güngör posted a tweet with the hashtag #Çınar, referring to the scene of the incident and said: "The spring has arrived early." Some interpreted Güngör's tweet as PKK propaganda and the Istanbul Public Prosecutor's Office launched an investigation into it on the grounds that he allegedly "praised the criminal and the crime." Güngör's whereabouts are unknown.

Police were reportedly not able to find Güngör at his address and according to reports, the search is still underway.

Five people, three of whom were children, died in the attack last Thursday that targeted a public headquarters and its housing units for police officers and their families.

PKK TERRORISTS CHEER ATTACK IN RADIO RECORDINGS

PKK terrorists congratulated each other following the attack in the Çınar district, radio conversations intercepted by security forces revealed.

The PKK issued an apology over weekend since the attack killed children. Their radio conversations, however, presented a different picture.

They allegedly cheered the attack and congratulated each other in conversations. "God bless your hands," one was quoted as saying in one of the conversations.

The apology from the PKK has been interpreted as insincere by some. It remains unknown whether the PKK will acknowledge the intercepted radio conversations.

19 TERRORISTS KILLED ON TUESDAY

The General Staff released a daily briefing on the ongoing operations in the southeast. At least 19 terrorists have been killed in Silopi, Cizre and Sur combined as of Wednesday, the statement said. The total number of terrorists killed in the operations in the three districts has reached 610.

Seventeen handmade explosives in the Cizre and Sur districts have been detonated as well.
