	'I WILL SEEK THE RIGHTS OF MY CHILD'

	 

	Noting that she will continue the sit-in demonstration she started in front of the Diyarbakır Courthouse as long as she can do, Ateş said: “I can't stop because of my health condition, but I will continue the sit-in. My child has no life safety. They will kill him. We both cry every time he calls me. When I  visit him, I see the scars on my child's body with my own eyes. Prison wardens are plotting against my son. Does such a thing happen? Wherever he is, I will seek the rights of my child. I'm ill, I can't continue the sit-in, but I will not stop following this situation . I'm worried; I want a solution to my son's situation."
