Compt d’auteur
On 28th May 2004 at around 3pm, Şiyar Perinçek was shot dead by a security officer outside the office of the Adana branch of the İHD. Mehmet Nurettin Basçı whom he was with, was arrested by the police and is currently being held on remand in Adana Kürkçüler F type prison. Nurettin Başçı has accused the police of subjecting him to torture during his detention. It is believed that the killing of Şiyar Perinçek amounted to an extrajudicial execution (this is a subject which is examined in more detail at paragraph 60 of this report).
