First Application in Kurdish to ECHR

Pro-Kurdish DTP member Alınak is tried together with another 93 people under "propaganda" charges on the grounds of a critical press release issued after the ban of the political party. Alınak will apply to the ECHR for the right to a defence in Kurdish as his mother tongue.
