DHKC Prisoner in Germany in hungerstrike, 32nd day

[english at ozgurluk.xs4all.nl]

ON THE 32ND DAY OF ALI EKTI'S HUNGER STRIKE,
THE PRISON ADMINISTRATION  IS CONTINUING WITH THE OPPRESSION.

ONE OF THE DHKC PRISONERS, ERDOGAN  CAKIR IS STARTING HUNGER STRIKE IN HIS
SUPPORT.

Ali Ekti, who started a hunger strike on May 6th to protest his
treatment, is continuing his legitimate action. Since he is a
political prisoner, Ekti is subject to arbitrary treatment by the
prison adminitration, and also has been placed in the section where
there are heroin addicts and psycopaths, who have committed the worst
and most inhuman crimes.  Ali Ekti, who suffers from foot pain and a
blood pressure problem, has to walk frequently and practice
sports. However he is being prevented by the prison administration,
and because he is on a hunger strike, his blood pressure is low, his
head is turning, and his stomach is aching. Ali Ekti, who was arrested
due to the DHKP-C trial, is deliberately being kept with psychopaths
and heroin addicts.

This is the kind of prisoner staying in the same section as Ekti:

One of them was sentenced to 4 years prison for rape, but he has been
kept in the prison for 12 years due to other crimes he committed in
the prison.

Another one chopped up 4 women and was therefore sentenced to 30
years.  Currently he is being kept due to commiting a murder.

One other is a rapist and a liar, who was sentenced to six anda half
years for abducting women from Romania along with Turkish fascists,
selling them and selling narcotics.

Another prisoner was sentenced to life imprisonment for large-scale
heroin trade.  He is now selling and using heroin in the prison. The
last time someone failed to pay for the heroin he bought, he cut their
throat.
  
The prison administration, which placed Ali Ekti with these prisoners an
tried to provoke criminal prisoners against Ekti by telling them that "This
is a terrorrist", have shown that they will use any kind of methods against
political prisoners.  The administration wants to create a
provocation.

Their efforts will not get a result.

Ali Ekti has been sentenced to 5 years.  At the moment there is 1 more
year until his release, and he may go out on weekend parole in 2
months time.  In this country [Germany], the justice and laws do not
work for revolutionaries and patriots. Germany tries to threaten and
intimidate peoples concerning the personalities of
revolutionaries. But they will not succeed in this.  If we, the
democrats, patriots, revolutionaries, that's to say the people, come
together, nobody can oppress or blackmail our people in prison.  If we
unite, we will realise our power and nobody can stand stop us .  The
policy ofsolation and oppression against Ali Ekti has to stop and we
call on you, our friends, to raise this demand.  Send your letters and
cards to:
