Political prisoner Seda Baykan continues a hunger strike against the conditions of isolation she has been subjected to for four years in Diyarbakır Women’s Prison, reaching the 35th day of her mobilization on May 5, 2026. She is demanding either to be transferred to an establishment where she would be held with other political prisoners, or to be moved to another prison, denouncing a strict isolation regime.
In solidarity, MLKP prisoners launched rotating five-day hunger strikes, successively taken up by prisoners incarcerated in Tekirdağ and Gebze, in a coordinated movement of support.
