WE WANT FREEDOM FOR ALI OSMAN KÖSE AND ALL ILL PRISONERS
Ali Osman Köse is a political prisoner who has been in prison for 37 years in Turkey. 21 years of his captivity have been spent in isolation cells.
Ali Osman Köse is a prisoner who has many health problems due to long-term conditions of captivity, torture and isolation. He has many health problems such as neurological problems, circulatory system-related diseases, hypertension, hearing loss, loss of balance, stomach problems, visual disorders. He cannot walk alone today without clinging to the wall due to these health problems he has experienced. He can't meet his requirements such as using the bathroom, sink or doing his laundry unaided, he can't even eat his food without assistance.
Ali Osman Köse's most important health problem today is the cancerous mass in his kidney. A 9 cm diameter cancerous cyst was found in his left kidney; it was said that these cancerous cells pose a vital risk and should be operated on urgently. But despite the fact that months have passed since the diagnosis, he is still not operated on, his treatment is blocked, so he is expected to die in prison.
Barriers to Ali Osman Köse's treatment should be removed, he should be treated in appropriate conditions and released immediately so that he can regain his health.
The Trakya University Hospital must make immediatly operation to remove the cancer cyst!
Let The Sick Prisoner Ali Osman Köse Be Released, Let The Right To Treatment Be Provided!
Solidarity Is The Weapon Of The Peoples!
