CHP Chairman Özgür Özel announced in a statement on his social media account that the law had passed through Parliament despite all objections and struggles.

CHP TO FILE THE APPLICATION THIS WEEK
Özel included the following statements in his announcement:
"We will file our application, which also includes our request for a stay of execution, to the Constitutional Court this week. I believe that the Constitutional Court will quickly issue a cancellation decision. Until that date, I invite mayors from all political parties not to implement the provisions of this law regarding the massacre. Otherwise, legal responsibility will arise just as much as moral responsibility."
The CHP leader emphasized that the application would be made as soon as possible and that a swift decision was expected from the Constitutional Court.
