Imprisoned PPK leader Abdullah Öcalan's lawyers Ömer Güneş, Asya Ülker and Mehmet Deniz Büyük went to the Bursa Law Court yesterday (1 September) to put forward their application. On the following day they went to Imralı island, where Öcalan is kept, for the weekly meeting with their client.

Öcalan has composed a 160 pages "road map" of what he believes will lead to a solution of the Kurdish question. He wrote another 600 pages on "Democratization of Middle East Culture." Both texts were handed to the prison management 2 weeks ago. (TK/VK)
