Kurdish activists to attend Paris demonstration in memory of murdered comrades

KURDISH activists will arrive in Paris today after travelling from London to attend a demonstration in memory of three women killed five years ago.

Kurdistan Workers Party co-founder Sakine Cansiz was among the three found dead at a Kurdish community centre on January 10 2013.

She and Fiden Dogan and Leyla Saylemez had been shot in what was described as “an execution-style killing.”
