URFA - On the 319th day of the Justice Watch, Ferit Şenyaşar addressed the members of the parliament and said: "They should pick a side. Those who do not chose their side in the face of oppression will be eliminated before the public."
 
Emine Şenyaşar, who lost her husband and two sons in a massacre carried out by the AKP Deputy İbrahim Halil Yıldız's bodyguards and relatives on 14 June 2018 in the Suruç district of Urfa, and her son Ferit Şenyaşar, who was injured in the same attack, are continuing the sit in in front of the Urfa Courthouse. The sit in, launched on March 9, is on its 319th day.  Mother Şenyaşar could not come to the courthouse due to her health issues and remained at her house in Suruç. Coming in front of the courthouse alone, Ferit Şenyaşar started the sit in for the day.
 
'THEY SHOULD PICK A SIDE'
 
Stating that the Justie Watch continues under oppression, Ferit Şenyaşar said: "It has almost been a year. It is extremely cold in Urfa since the beginning of the week. We continue our sit-in resolutely. We never left this place empty no matter what happened. Addressing the members of the parliament, Şenyaşar said: "What was done to us in Suruç State Hospital was a massacre. It was a crime against humanity. The oppression on our family continues since then. My brother is being held in solitary confinement for 4 years now. We can't just sit at home doing nothing. All the members of the parliament have heard what happened to us by now. They should pick a side. Those who do not chose their side in the face of oppression will be eliminated before the public. We will continue our sit-in until we get justice."
 
'THOSE WHO REMAIN IMPARTIAL WILL BE ELIMINATED'
 
Şenyaşar family shared the following from their Twitter account: "Those who do not fight against oppression to the people can not represent the people. Those who do not chose their side in the face of oppression will be eliminated before the public.
