Turkish government watches as lawyers on hunger strike reach critical condition

The health of two lawyers, Ebru Timtik and Aytaç Ünsal, on indefinite hunger strike demanding a fair trial has reached a critical point.

Ebru has been on indefinite hunger strike for 240 days and Aytac for 210 days. Their health is at risk and the Turkish government is standing idly by.

The Justice Minister has not even responded to their call for a fair trial and is practically waiting for the lawyers to die.

As SPOT, we call on the British Government to put pressure on the Turkish government and call for the demands for a fair trial to be accepted by the Turkish government.
