Huda-Par (Free Cause Party), a radical jihadist “political party” in Turkey, has announced its support for President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his People’s Alliance (the religious and nationalist alliance) in the upcoming May 14 elections.
Huda-Par has roots in the outlawed Kurdish-Hezbollah which is responsible for the horrific executions in southeast Turkey during the 1990s. At the time, they were called “Hezbocontras” and allegedly were being trained in the Diyarbakir headquarters of the Turkish police force.
Their victims, including journalists and leading Kurdish political figures, were found in a network of torture chambers.
