Denmark-based Roj TV Calls for Violence and Riots in Turkey

Denmark-based Roj TV has called for violent rioting on the streets of Diyarbakir, the funerals for 4 of the 14 terrorist PKK members killed in clashes became an opportunity to attack the civilian and police targets in Diyarbakir city. Yesterday, a call to shop and business owners to "close their shutters and roll down their metal blinds" in deference to the funerals led to violence by PKK supporters on the streets of Diyarbakir against up to 70 shops, 3 banks, and one health clinic that chose not to heed the Roj TY broadcasted warning from the PKK. Supporters of the outlawed terrorist group threw molotov cocktails at unshuttered businesses, and some banks' ATMs were destroyed. It is believed that the Roj TV has been financed by the PKK which is on the list of terrorist organizations in the US, EU, Australia and with the NATO. The TV channel is also said to be used for money laundering and other illegal business. Denmark, a member of the EU has so far rejected to close down the station. The PKK’s previous TV stations MED TV and MEDYA TV were closed by the UK and France.
