Ramazan Yavuz Diyarbakir


       The so called presidential council of the PKK threatened Diyarbakir
       guilds to protest Abdullah Ocalan's capture in February 1999 by keeping
       their shops closed for a day.
       It has been one year today since the PKK leader Abdullah Ocalan captured in
       Kenya on February 15 1999 and brought to Imrali prison island. The PKK
       wanted to protest the capture of their leaders by making the guilds close
       their shops, as it had done for some other reasons in the previous years.
       Although the terrorist organisation had announced that it quitted armed
       struggle, MED - TV made a call the other day to close shops and not to go
       out until noon.
       Although it was noticing some shops in Baglar and Sehitlik neighbourhoods
       were closed, all were open towards the noon.
       On the possibility of any demostration in Diyarbakir the security forces
       took tight measures in various places in the city.
