COME TO THE RALLY IN FRONT OF THE FEDERAL MINISTRY OF JUSTICE ON OCTOBER 3, 14:30 AND PARTICIPATE IN THE WEEK OF ACTION!
“Eda, Ilgin and Sevil are fighting for all antifascists today! They are starving for us! Because paragraph 129 StGB affects us all!”
-Committee Away with Paragraph 129
Eda Haydaroglu started an indefinite hunger strike in front of the Federal Ministry of Justice in Berlin on 18.03.2023.
Ilgin Güler and Sevil Sevimli Güler from France, have also joined the hunger strike ,two months after Eda started, with the same demands.
All three are currently sleeping in a tent in front of the Federal Ministry of Justice, protesting against paragraph 129a/b StGB.
They want to use their hunger to draw attention to injustices in the German justice system, pointing to problems that affect the ongoing 129B trial in Düsseldorf.
Last year in May, three anti-fascists from Turkey, Özgül Emre (journalist), Serkan Küpeli (student) and Ihsan Cibelik (musician with Grup Yorum) were arrested. Since then, they have been in pre-trial detention. Their trial started on 14.06.2023 in the OLG in Düsseldorf. The hunger strikers and also the lawyers say that this trial proves a good example of the sense and class justice in Germany, and call everyone to accompany and observe the trial.
Eda Haydaroglu, Ilgin Güler and Sevil Sevimli Güler demand the abolition of the Paragraph 129 and the lifting of the pre-trial detention of their comrades Özgül, Ihsan and Serkan.
Paragraph 129 opens the door to any arbitrary application in judicial terms. The state uses this paragraph as an instrument to destroy anti-fascist struggles and to silence them.
They can criminalize any democratic activities with these paragraphs.
This is an attack on our fundamental rights and freedoms!
As long as this paragraph exists, there can be no fair and independent trial!
That means the fight against this paragraph is a fight for all of us!
Eda’s resistance reaches its 200th day on October 3.
200 days of HUNGER STRIKE!
For 200 days she survives only by taking salt, sugar, water and vitamin B1….
They are fighting for us…
