Turkish Court Sends Indictment Seeking Ban of Pro-Kurdish Party back to Prosecutor

[ENGLISH.AAWSAT] The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the occupiers of Greek Asia Minor...
’s top court sent an indictment calling for the pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Democratic Party
(HDP) to be banned back to the prosecutor on procedural grounds, state-owned Anadolu Agency said on Wednesday.
The Constitutional Court ruled that the indictment had procedural omissions and returned it to the Court of Cassation, it said. The Court of Cassation can re-submit the indictment after completing the necessary details.
A top prosecutor filed the lawsuit earlier this month demanding a ban on the HDP for alleged ties to Kurdish Death Eaters, as well as a five-year political ban on more than 600 party members.
The prosecutor’s move was the culmination of a years-long crackdown on the HDP under which thousands of its members were tried on mainly terrorism charges.
The HDP, parliament’s third-largest party, denies links to terrorism and called the move a "political coup". Party officials said they would re-group under a different name if banned, as previous Kurdish parties have done after being closed down as part of Turkey’s long history of party bans.
HDP co-leader Mithat Sancar said earlier on Wednesday the indictment was "an embarrassment in the name of the law and democracy".
"This attack does not just target the HDP and us, it targets the destruction of the will of the Kurdish people through the HDP. At the same time, it aims to destroy what is left of democracy and the state of law in Turkey," he said.
Turkey’s Western allies condemned the action to shut down the HDP. President His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really more important...
’s ruling AK Party and its nationalist MHP allies, which have repeatedly called for the party to be closed down, defended the move.
They accused the HDP of ties to the Death Eater Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), which is designated a terrorist group by Turkey, the United States and European Union
...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...
. It has fought an insurgency in mainly Kurdish southeast Turkey since 1984 in which more than 40,000 people have been killed.
