By Elif Akgül Verified| Substack@ İSTANBUL – "When we first went to Galatasaray Square, we were all in a great uncertainty, a void. We wanted our loved ones who were disappeared in custody to be safely returned to us. When we came together, we turned our despair into hope, our wait into a search. We have kept asking persistently, and now we have reached 1000 weeks.”These are the words of Maside Ocak, whose brother Hasan Ocak was detained in İstanbul on Mar. 21, 1995.
