PKK to heed its leader”s peace call, declare ceasefire

PKK will heed its jailed leader Abdullah Ocalan”s call for disarmament and declare an immediate ceasefire, a news agency close to the group cited it as saying on Saturday, Reuters reported.

The group said it hoped Ankara would release Ocalan, held since 1999, so he can lead a process of disarmament, adding that the necessary political and democratic conditions need to be established for the process to succeed.
