2016-07-25 1

Footage has emerged of dozens of HDP sympathizers gathered in Istanbul for a pro-democracy rally on Sunday.

In the video, shot on Sunday, the crowd can be seen waving flags and chanting during the anti-coup and pro-democracy protest.

According to reports, the pro-Kurdish "Peoples' Democratic Party" organised a separate rally from the main cross-party "Republic and Democracy" protest held on the same day as HDP parliamentarians are currently under threat of prosecution for "terrorism" and "separatism".
