Documentary sheds light on the Kurdish issue

"Thomas Büsch and Sabine Küper made an interesting report after the August riots in the Kurdish city in Amed(Diyarbakir). Conditions may have improved for Kurds in the Turkish nation state, but this video points out that the future is still uncertain. This is confirmed by the recent upsurge in violence. Recently for instance there were attacks by Kurdish militants in Marmaris, Istanbul and Antalya. The video casts an objective light on the Kurdish issue and all sides give their opinion on this situation.

Following pro-PKK riots, 250 children are now facing lengthy prison sentences. Even if they didn't participate in the riot. Ali and his cousin Vedat went to the funeral but didn’t join the riots.. A few days later Ali was arrested in front of his high school. The police just grabed 70 students for a journey to jail."
