Turkey has launched an investigation into academics who signed a petitioncriticising the military\u2019s crackdown on Kurdish rebels in the south-east that angered President Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan.<\/p>\n

More than 1,200 academics from 90 Turkish universities calling themselves \u201cAcademicians for Peace\u201d, as well as foreign scholars, signed the petition last week calling for an end to the months-long violence.<\/p>\n

Entitled \u201cWe won\u2019t be a party to this crime\u201d, the petition urged Ankara to \u201cabandon its deliberate massacre and deportation of Kurdish and other peoples in the region\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
