ISTANBUL (Reuters) - A pro-Kurdish politician regained his status as a lawmaker in Turkey's parliament on Friday four months after it was removed, following a top court ruling that his rights had been violated by his imprisonment on terrorism charges.
Omer Faruk Gergerlioglu, a human rights activist and a member of the Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP), had his parliamentary status in March after a 2-1/2 jail sentence became final.
