DIYARBAKIR - The chief prosecutor's office completed an indictment on Diyarbakir Mayor Osman Baydemir against whom an investigation was earlier launched on the grounds that he made statements eulogizing terrorist organization during incidents in southeastern city of Diyarbakir.
Sources said that the prosecutor seeks a prison sentence up to ten years for Baydemir on charges of ''being a member of terrorist organization'' in the indictment which was prepared after a probe conducted by chief inspectors from the Ministry of Interior Affairs.
During the incidents in Diyarbakir, Baydemir addressed protestors by saying, ''17 of ours have died so far. We don't want this number to be 18. I share your pain.''
