NOW IT'S OUR DUTY TO ASK IT! WHERE ARE THEY?
It's now time to ask the attention of the democratic public opinion.
It's now time to find out and judge why innocent people are being
captured by the police and the counter-guerilla units en taken away
from their house without knowing where they are heading. And this
everything happens in Turkey and Turkish-Kurdistan. Neslihan Uslu,
Hasan Aydodan,Metin Anda_, Mehmet Ali Mandal_ These are the people who
are captured and taken away by the police on 31 March 1998 in Yzmir
(West-Turkey). From then we receive no news from these four people.
Because of this fact it's now time to ask: Where are these four
people? They are not the first and unfortunately not the last four who
disappeared after that they were taken by the police. Without doubt we
know that the police had arrested these four people on 31 March 1998
but none of the government institutions gives us information about
their fate. It's the responsibility of the government to know where
the four people are. "Even if there a sheep is missing, it's my
responsibility to know where it is."

NOW WE ARE ASKING! WHERE ARE THESE FOUR PEOPLE!!!

NESLIHAN USLU: She was a student at the Faculty of Literature in
Istanbul. She was standing for a democratic educational system and she
fought for it. She had participated in the struggle to establish a
real democratic, justified and totally independent country. Because of
these facts the police has arrested her on March the 31st. From then
we obtained no news.

MEHMET ALI MANDAL: Born in 1958 in Menemen-Aliada (Yzmir). Because of
the family circumstances en poverty he couldn't finish his education.
He has fought for equality and justice and been arrested with his 3
comrades on 31 March 1998. After that time we obtained no news from
him.

HASAN AYDODAN: Born in 1974 in Tokat (Northern Turkey). He was one of
the seven children of a poor family. After the secondary school he
couldn't continue with studying. While his friends at the same age
were going to school he began to work just like the thousands of
children in our country. He fought for a democratic and justified
system. The police had arrested him on 31 March 1998. We obtained no
news from him after that time.      

METIN ANDA_: 46 years old. He was a poor farmer in a village nearby
Bergama (Western Turkey). In 1989 a company called Eurogold to settle
down in the neighborhood of his village. Eurogold made use of
"cyanide", a very poisonous material, to search gold on the mountains
of Bergama. This material has damaged the nature and health of the
people living there. Metin Anda_ mobilized the people to protest
against this poisonous company and succeeded to establish a people's
council in Bergama. Because of this fact the police had arrested him
on 31 march 1998. After that time we obtained no news from him.
