Diyarbakır Prison-Torture and Death

During the period when the 12 September pashas were waiting for the coup to mature, most of the names in the revolutionary struggle, along with the sympathizers and leaders of ethnic-based organizations organized in the Southeast, were arrested after the coup, tortured, kept in prisons for decades, their fundamental rights were taken away, dozens were hanged, hundreds were hanged. He was left disabled. Thousands of revolutionaries, who did not want to face these, lived away from their homeland, longing for family and homeland. Today, many of them still cannot return to their country. The details revealed in the conversations about what happened in Diyarbakir Prison after the September 12 coup are blood-curdling. The events described in the book, when looked back from today, resemble between the lines of a thriller novel. But it's all real, it's all happened. In other words; Words are not enough to describe the practices in Diyarbakir Prison, where torture and ill-treatment that harm the mental health of both the narrator and the listener are experienced, nor can conscience allow to listen. Rasit Kisacik presents to the reader the events of the period and what happened in prison, some of which he witnessed, with the sensitivity of an impartial journalist. As a result, it can be seen that even the detainees and convicts who stayed here for a very short time have not yet been able to overcome the trauma they experienced.
