ANKARA - The Konya Magistrates Court rejected the request of Abdurrahman Karabulut, the lawyer of the murdered Kurdish family, to ‘’arrest Ali Keleş in the light of the evidences’’.

 

Abdurrahman Karabulut, the lawyer of the Kurdish Dedeoğulları family, who was murdered in the Meram district of Konya on July 30, demanded the arrest of Ali Keleş, who was among the suspects.
