Seven years have passed since the murders of Muhammed Şerif Şimşek and Abdulcelil Talayhan, the martyrs of the attack of HDP members on May 29, 2015, in the village of Kozluca (Xanikê) of the district of Idil (Hezex) in Şırnak.
While the ”Peace Process” which started in December of 2012, turned into a simoom for the people of the region, while a cool breeze for PKK. In the process that started, some believed that PKK will quit weapons, but the people of the region were trying to tell them the truth about the price of their lives they gave.
The Muslim Kurdish people, who saw that something had not been solved during the solution process, had strengthened, on the contrary, suffered greatly in the state-created PKK hegemony for about 3 years. The people of the region who witnessed many savageries, especially on the October 6-7 barbarians, felt the PKK persecution to the hilt.
But the price that the people paid, the pain that they suffered was not seen, it was not wanted to be seen for the process not to be damaged.
Yes, with the theme of “Solution Process”, for 3 years, the people of the region witnessed the brutality, and tyranny of PKK, which they had not seen for 30 years. Of course, the progression that accompanied the perception operations was reinforced by the pink-colored news served from the major media centers. Murders, assaults, torture, and kidnappings, were seen in small type sizes or never seen.
Every day, bad news came from different places to the centers of the press organizations operating in the region.
There was such a news story that came to the press centers. This time an attack took place in the Kozluca (Xanikê) village of Idil, district of Şırnak. While working in the village, two villagers who were targets of the bullets from Kalashnikov were cruelly massacred.
Several days before the general elections of June 7, 2015, HDPs who went to Xanikê as part of the "election work" targeted people who did not think like them and they had done the same which they did before in different places.
2 farmers who were busy harvesting in their fields, were targeted by the bullets of HPD while they were trying to defuse the provocative HPD acting. Two wives were widowed and nine children were left orphaned.
The HDP members had mercilessly attacked the public and they consciously went to the village of Xanikê, which Xaniké village targeted by PKK attacks in the 1990s and gave martyrs during those attacks, formed by the people who gave the majority to HUDA PAR.
Muhammad Şerif Simsek, 35, and Abdulcelil Talayhan, 37, who were seriously injured in the attack, lost their lives in Nusaybin State Hospital despite all the efforts of the doctors.
The attacker Sedat Teber, a member of PKK/HDP surrendered to the gendarme with his father after the incident and was arrested by the court.
After about a year of trial, the murderer Sedat Teber was sentenced to a total of 42 years, including 18 years for murder and 6 years for possession of guns. Şerif Teber, a pending trial father, was acquitted of the murders despite the testimonies of the village people and received a prison sentence of only 6 years for possession of guns.
In Kurdistan, the inhabitants of the village of Xanikê, one of the biggest witnesses of the PKK cruelties, had witnessed a new murder that they were not foreigners. (ILKHA)
