We are here to give voice to a mother's cry for justice. Days, months, years don't matter. But we believe that justice will come one day. As women, we share Emine Şenyaşar's suffering. Emine Şenyaşar is waiting here at the door of the courthouse in a feudal place like Urfa. As women, we are always on the side of 'justice'. Today we will also stage a one-day sit-in.”
