Hozat has accused NATO and Turkey of being responsible for the murder of Sakine Cansiz (Co-Founder of the PKK), Fidan Doğan (member of the Kurdistan National Congress), and Leyla Söylemez (member of the Kurdish youth movement) in Paris.[1] Hozat says that the reason why no light has been shed on these murders is that NATO was involved and that Turkey has been using this incident to intimidate Kurdish women.[6]
