		AMED - In Amed, TJA women marched to Sûr Municipality with the slogan "Trustee, get out of Kurdistan" and gave the message that they will increase the resistance.
	
		 


	Tevgera Jinen Azad (TJA) marched with the banner ‘Femicides are political and ideological’ after announcing the 25 November declaration. TJA activists, Peoples' Equality and Democracy Party (DEM Party) Women's Assembly Spokesperson Halide Türkoğlu and Democratic Regions Party (DBP) Women's Assembly Spokesperson Berivan Bahçeci participated in the march.

	 

	They did not accept any obstacle

	 

	TJA members marched from İskender Pasha Mansion to Sûr Municipality with shouts and applause. ‘Jin jiyan azadi’ and “Trustee get out of Kurdistan” slogans were chanted throughout the march. The women were intercepted by the police and their banner was confiscated. The women did not allow the police to prevent them and continued their march with the banner ‘Femicide is political and ideological.'

	 

	‘We are facing male state violence’

	 

	Women who came in front of Sûr Municipality made a statement here. Speaking at the statement, DEM Party Women's Assembly Spokesperson Halide Türkoğlu said, "Our struggle against male state violence continues. Today we are facing male-state violence with trustee appointments. The women's libertarian system we have created in local governments is precisely a system created by women struggling against male violence. We could hear the rebellion of women there. They want to silence the voice of women's struggle."

	 

	‘We will send the trustees away’

	 

	Emphasising that the honourable struggle of the Kurdish people was targeted by the trustees, Halide Türkoğlu stated, ‘We do not accept the trustee practices, especially in Êlih, Mêrdîn, Esenyurt, Xelfetî and Colemêrg. We do not accept appointed governors and district governors when there are elected ones. Because they are civil servants. Civil servants can only fulfil bureaucratic tasks, but the elected people are obliged to realise the demands of the people. Those who usurp this will do not accept the will of the people, women and youth to govern themselves. We want to govern ourselves. If we are governed and live the way we are governed, then we will not accept usurpation, trusteeship or denial. We will increase our struggle for a free and equal life."
