HAKKARİ (DİHA) - A solidarity march was held in eastern province of Hakkari for Kurdish young woman Xosrawanî.

Thousands took to the streets in Hakkari where demonstrators pointed out that the brutality the Kurdish people faced in Mahabad and Meriwan in the person of Kurdish young woman Ferinaz Xosrawanî was the same as the savagery they faced in Kobanê and Shengal.

In a statement following a march from the city centre to the municipality building, DBP provincial co-chair Cevahir Keskin drew attention to the repression of the Iranian regime, and commented the Mahabad incident as an attack targeting the Kurdish people and women's honour.

Comparing the Mahabad attack to that of ISIS gangs, Keskin said; “ISIS is selling women in slave markets and making them a target for rape. In the same way, the Iranian regime is trying to humiliate the women honour by committing rape.”
