A public prosecutor?s office in the eastern province of A?r? has launched an investigation into the killing of two young civilians, amid allegations of extrajudicial execution in a gendarmerie operation that was launched after a terror attack at a district gendarmerie command post.

Even though the eastern province of A?r?'s governorate stated three members of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) had been killed in clashes after PKK members staged an attack on the Gendarmerie Command in the province's Diyadin district, the mayor of the district has claimed two of the dead were actually underage civilians who had nothing to do with the outlawed organization.
