Turkish Protests

The December 2009 Kurdish protests in Turkey were a series of widespread civil disturbances in Turkey lasting five days. The protests erupted after a December 11, 2009 ruling by the Constitutional Court of Turkey that banned the pro-Kurdish Democratic Society Party (DTP), after finding them guilty of having links to the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) and spreading "terrorist propaganda."
