Those participating in the ceremony commemorated Abdullah Cömert, Mehmet Ayvalıtaş, Ethem Sarısülük, Ali İsmail Korkmaz and police officer Mustafa Sarı who all lost their lives during the protests.
The participants also paid their respects to Lobna Allami, who was hit directly in the head by a tear gas cannister fired by police and suffered serious brain damage, as well as to other individuals who were severely injured in police violence.
During the ceremony, the citizens gathered in front of symbolic gravestones to place carnations beside signs showing the names of those who died during the demonstrations.
