Abdullah Ocalan
Abdullah Öcalan, also known as Apo, is a Kurdish nationalist, political prisoner and one of the founding members of the militant Kurdistan Workers' Party. Öcalan was based in Syria from 1979 to 1998. He helped found the PKK in 1978, and led it into the Kurdish–Turkish conflict in 1984. For most of his leadership, he was based in Syria, which provided sanctuary to the PKK until the late 1990s. After being forced to leave Syria, Öcalan was abducted in Nairobi in 1999 by the Turkish National Intelligence Agency and taken to Turkey, where he was sentenced to death under Article 125 of the Turkish Penal Code, which concerns the formation of armed organizations. The sentence was commuted to aggravated life imprisonment when Turkey abolished the death penalty. From 1999 until 2009, he was the sole prisoner on İmralı Island, in the Sea of Marmara, where he is still held. Öcalan has advocated a political solution to the conflict since the 1993 Kurdistan Workers' Party ceasefire.
