We did Ağrı as the most peaceful city in Turkey by the projects we conducted with our team after people of Ağrı elected me as mayor of Ağrı. So our conscience is clear. I was taken into custody with other Kurdish politicians from the assembly on 2 March 1994 which means 23 years before. Today history repeated itself. But whatever it takes we will bring the peace to this region” wrote on his twitter account.

Sakık also commented to Dihaber about the decision of Interior Ministery that he was dismissed.

History showed us this way is not a way for solution and someone insists to follow this way” stated Sakık.
