          Daughter of Kurdish Activist Becomes Turkey's Youngest Mayor

   by Dorian Jones

   In the three-decade conflict between the Turkish state and Kurds
   seeking greater minority rights, tens of thousands of people were
   killed, and some of the victims' families fled to Europe. One of those
   was Leyla Imret, who grew up in Germany after her activist father was
   killed by Turkish security forces. Imret returned to Turkey to take up
   her father's struggle, though, and became the country's youngest mayor
   at 27. Dorian Jones has the story for VOA.
