ISTANBUL - The Saturday Mothers, who wanted to go out to Galatasaray Square despite the AYM's "respectable" decisions for their demonstrations, were once again detained by the police in the 28th anniversary protest.
 
The 28th year protest of the Saturday Mothers to ask about the fate of their relatives disappeared in custody and to demand that the perpetrators be prosecuted continued in its 948th week. Despite the "violation" decisions of the Constitutional Court (AYM), Saturday Mothers and human rights defenders who wanted to make a statement in Galatasaray Square, where the police blockade continued, faced police barriers and attacks this week as well.
 
18 PEOPLE WERE DETAINED

Meanwhile, the journalists who were following the news were prevented by being removed from the area.
 
The detained group made a victory sign by throwing the carnations in their hands into Galatasaray Square while they were being put into the detention vehicle. Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) Istanbul MP Musa Piroğlu also attended and supported the statement.
