Relatives of Hüseyin Altın, İbrahim Kılıç and Aşkın Günel had applied to the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) arguing that their relatives could have been caught alive during the operations but were nevertheless fatally shot in the head after being captured, and complained about the extrajudicial killings in the operations.
Malbatên Hûseyin Altin, Ibrahim Kılıç û Aşkın Gunelî serî li Dadgeha Mafên Mirovan a Ewropayê(DMME) dabûn û diyar kiribûn ku polîs û leşkeran dikarîn mirovên wan bi saxî bigirin lê wan piştî ew girtîn înfaz kirine.
