İSTANBUL - 55-year-old Sare Ay, who was attacked by a racist group on Saraçlar Street, was taken under observation today after a 3-hour surgery.

 

The stand set up by the Greens and Left Future Party (Green Left Party) Edirne Provincial Organization on Saraçlar Caddesi, one of the city's busiest streets, on May 3, was racially attacked by unidentified people. While the arm of Eskişehir 2nd rank parliamentary candidate Serdal Zımba and Sare Ay were broken, the police detained 7 Green Left Party members who were attacked instead of detaining the perpetrators of the attack.

 

1 PERSON HAS BEEN ARRESTED

 

While 6 of the 7 party members whose statements were taken at the Edirne Provincial Police were released after the deposition, a citizen named Süleyman Hızmalı was arrested by the court he was charged with on the allegation of "injuring".

 

THE SURGERY HAS LASTED FOR 3 HOURS

 

Sare Ay (55), whose arm was broken in three different places and injured in various parts of her body by the attackers, was taken under observation after her surgery, which lasted for 3 hours, at the Sultan First Murat Hospital today. It has been learned that Ay will be discharged tomorrow.

 

'THE ATTACKERS HIT MY ARM AND KNEES FOR MINUTES

 

Pointing out that the attackers who attacked her and her colleagues at the booth were brutal, Ay said: "Although I fell to the ground in the brawl, I was beaten for minutes on the ground by the attackers. After I fell to the ground, one of the attackers hit my head and the other attackers hit my arm and knees for minutes. We were not the attackers, the attackers were the other party. Defend our rights."
