Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) deputy Nihat Akdogan has been remanded in custody after appearing before court in the southeastern Hakkari province on Monday evening.
 
Akdogan, an MP from Hakkari province, was charged with "committing a crime for a terror organization" and "making terror organization propaganda", among other accusations.
 
He is among the deputies who failed to answer a summons linked to a counter-terrorism investigation.
 
Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Numan Kurtulmus had told journalists that the number of deputies who had failed respond to the summons was down to two following Akdogan's capture Monday afternoon at the entrance of Hakkari.
 
The HDP’s co-chairs Selahattin Demirtas and Figen Yuksekdag as well as seven other lawmakers, were remanded in custody on Friday while three other lawmakers were released.
