FASCIST STATE ATTACKED REVOLUTIONARY DEMOCRATIC PEOPLE WHO WERE CELEBRATING MARCH THE 8TH

The fascist system´s representatives who always talk about democracy and human rights, attacked revolutionary democratic people that came together for celebrating March the 8th in Ístanbul.

At 11 o´clock this morning, police forces attacked without any warning, with gas bombs in Sarachane Park in Istanbul. Many people including our comrades from New Democrat Youth and Partisan and a activist of ILPS were arrested, many others were injured.

Later, at 12 o´clock, revolutionary democratic organizations met again in front of the University of Istanbul. For an hour the 8th of March was celebrated. At the end of the meeting, police again attacked people who were leaving the meeting, many people were injured. One more time the police used chemical gases over people.

We are announcing one more time that fascist oppression´s can not hinder us, these attacks can not stop our revolutionary struggle. We are protesting against this anti-democratic action of the police.

– DOWN WITH FASCISM!
– LONG LIVE MARCH THE 8TH!

NEW DEMOCRAT YOUTH
