The prisoners described the new stage of their action as follows: "Our hunger strike action has shown the need to evolve into a new stage as of April 4, the birthday of our Leader (Ocalan). As prisoners, we are a country whose racist, discriminatory and fascist features are highly exposed, and when it comes to the Kurdish reality, they do not even recognize their own laws. Our decision to boycott incoming colonial courts and not to go on weekly phone calls and family visits. Starting from April 4, we will launch our 'Freedom for Leader Apo, Democratic Solution to the Kurdish Issue' move with the motto of 'Living under the same conditions as our Leader'.
