Strasbourg - Turkey's main Kurdish political party appealed Wednesday to the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) to reverse a domestic ruling that outlawed it on the grounds of being linked to terrorism, a party official announced on Wednesday. The Turkish Constitutional Court banned the Democratic Society party (DTP) on December 11, ruling that it was connected to the PKK, a Kurdish terrorist organisation."
