Osman Şiban (50) and Servet Turgut (55), who were arrested during an operation in the field of Andiçen Mahallesi Sürik village, in Van’s Çatak district, were alleged to have been dropped from helicopters. Van Governorate claimed that people who tried to escape without obeying the “stop” warning in the area of ​​operation fell off the rocks. The residents’ lawyers and relatives, who argued that the government’s statement was not correct, said: “They took it in front of our eyes and put it in a helicopter while they were working in the fields. There is no case of fleeing or resisting. “We found out they were in the hospital 3 days later.”

In the epicrisis report prepared by doctors Osman Şiban and Servet Turgut, who were detained on September 11 by soldiers who went into operation in the Çatak district and who turned out to be in the intensive care unit of the Regional Training Hospital and Van investigation two days later, he said: “After falling from a height He was reported to the medical teams and taken to the emergency room by 112.” In the continuation of the Şiban report, it was stated that “… the patient was taken to the emergency room after falling from a helicopter and injured by the emergency specialist on the day of the incident, and an on-site consultation was requested . The patient is said to have been treated in the emergency room. Osman Şiban, who was discharged after his treatment, was reported to have lost his memory and it was learned that Servet Turgut, who was treated in the intensive care unit, was connected to the respiratory system and that his life was in danger.

The Van Governorate made a statement on the incident after HDP deputies presented the accusations of dropping the helicopters to the agenda of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey with questions. In the statement, “It was observed that the person named ST, who was observing the place where the terrorist was neutralized and exhibiting suspicious movements, fell and was injured in the rocky area while trying to escape for not obeying the ‘stop’ warning. O.Ş., who is evaluated as an accomplice of members of the separatist terrorist organization in the region. The person named was duly taken under protection despite showing resistance in the same region. The statement indicated that the people who were transferred by helicopter from the region to the Van Provincial Gendarmerie Command were later hospitalized.

‘WE DO NOT REMEMBER’

The relatives of the settlers who spoke with the Republic argued that the government’s declaration was not correct. Cengiz Şiban, Osman Şiban’s brother, said: “They take Servetus out of the field around 5.30pm and bring him to the village. Osman was having tea with his children. Normally, the soldiers returned during the day and verified their identity. One of us was slapped and said, ‘We’re angry, we’ll get it out of you.’ At night they were taken in good condition and put into the helicopter. Three days later, the news came that they were in the hospital. These people were inhumanely tortured. Osman is also a citizen of this country, he does not have a call or an investigation. Osman is discharged but does not remember us. I want those who do this to be held accountable to the judiciary. I call the Ministry of the Interior: Investigate those who perpetrated this atrocity, take them to court ”.

Servet Turgut’s brother, Naif Turgut, stated that the risk of his brother’s life continues and said: “My brother’s camp is 1-2 kilometers from the conflict zone that took place that day. The soldiers approach my brother while he is making hay in the field and ask him, “Are you helping and inciting them?” Fortune said they were people who had a livelihood. A bit of a stutter, bro. They took him into town and took Osman away. The children cried. Servetus has 8 children. We don’t know what they did after getting into the helicopter. Yesterday I went to Osman and asked him ‘What did they do to you?’ He said ‘They threw us out of the helicopter.’ There are no rocks or stones to fall on. I also went and spoke with the prosecutor. We submit to justice, judge, but why torture? He doesn’t have solid bones. ”

The lawyer for the two families, Hamit Kocak, said he thought the governorate did not even examine the file and said: “There are eyewitnesses. Osman and Servetus were taken safely from the village. There is no resistance. “They are trying to run the judiciary,” he said.

‘WHO DID THIS TORTURE?’

The delegation led by HDP Group Vice President Saruhan Oluç, who went to Van to investigate the allegations at the scene, met with the chief physician of the Van Regional Research Hospital. When the delegation wishing to make a statement at the door of the hospital was not allowed, a brief dispute ensued between the police and the parliamentarians. Later, when making a statement in front of the hospital, Oluç argued that the governorate was trying to hide the incident and said: “Who gave this torture order? We asked Süleyman Soylu. We are asking Hulusi Akar. Did a special operation do this torture? Safety? Did he enforce the law? Did your new JİTEM do it? “, I ask.
