Turkey’s chief prosecutor reiterates demand to disband AKP

The first charge by Yalcinkaya came in March when the prosecutor first called for disbanding the Justice and Development Party and inflicting a five-year ban on 71 members of its leaders, including President Gul and prime minister Erdogan.
News agencies report that the AKP will present its own cases two days from now, 3 July. Deputy Prime Minister Cemil Cicek, accompanied by AKP caucus leader Bekir Bozdag, will hand in the party’s memorandum.
After presenting of the AKI’s arguments, the rapporteur will present his report to the judges.
The Court, which ruled against that a law lifting the ban on headscarf, should have a decision for August.
