Ulutaş said: "Some of our friends are deteroiorating. The liquids and vitamins given by the prison administration is insufficiant. That is a problem, but our morale is high. We will continue our resistance until the isolation is over.Our people outside should be our voices."
Ulutaş calling on to the international humans' rights associations and to the democracy powers in Turkey, said: "The humans' righst associations and democracy powers in Turkey should act immediately. Our peoples in Turkey should give us a hand. Our friends are wasting away day by day.Isolation is a crime against humanity.It can not be accepted.We just want the law on prisoners and convicts that applies to all prisoners, to be applied for our leader as well. The cruelty and oppression will continue until they respect their own laws. Everyone who cares about humans' rights should make some noise before more funerals come out of the prisons."
