7. The Turkish state's special war media is reporting that a person named Nüsret Tebiş, who was allegedly connected to our movement and is said to be the person responsible for the sinister Güngören massacre of 27 July 2008, was killed. This report is pure fiction. It is a lie and does not correspond to reality. Our forces had no connection with Nüsret Tebiş. The Turkish state has come under public criticism, especially because of the massacre with nine deaths in Zaxo, and is trying to distract from this and improve the reputation of MIT with this staging. The people of Kurdistan and the democratic public in Turkey should not pay attention to these reports.
