Elibüyük said that the government, who played an active role in the process of February 28, was responsible for those events. "Unfortunately, there were sad events in Sivas. However, in the background, we saw the game is big. The writers of the script have chosen their victims."

Elibüyük underlined that many innocent people were arrested allegedly involving in the events, who were not in the city that night and who were not at the scene.

"They were tortured for days and had to sign the statements they had never read. The government of the time, which played an active role in the process of February 28, is responsible for this event. Not even the slightest step was taken for the real perpetrators to be brought to justice."

Addressing to the government, Elibüyük underscored that today's government is a partner in this persecution by not trying to eliminate the victimization.
