Trade unionists gather outside Turkish embassy over mass arrests of opposition voices

CAMPAIGNERS and trade unionists gathered outside the Turkish embassy in London today to demand an end to mass opposition arrests by Turkey’s government.

More than 300 politicians, trade unionists, artists and activists have been detained this week for alleged ties to the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK).

Campaigners warn more raids are expected and say many detainees have no ties to the PKK.
