We, high schoolers who made action against school reports and exams in June 8 in Kadikoy, were taken into custody with torture. We came together at Kadıköy Khalkedon Square to distribute declaration leaflets calling for the trial on December 25. While we were distributing our leaflets as high school youth organisations with “Judge Torturers, Not Highschoolers” banner, police attacked and took into custody more than 10 of our friends.

We high schoolers will continue to be on the streets against police torture and state oppression. We will continue to expose the police who torture us. They will not be able to silence our voice which they try to suppress!
