The electricity supply of public institutions in the north will be “cut off” if their debts to the electricity authority Kib-Tek are not settled next week, a trade union leader said on Tuesday.

Leader of the Kib-Tek employees’ union El-Sen, Ahmet Tugcu announced that the union will also share the list of all indebted institutions with the public if the debts are not paid.

“If the accumulated debts and delays to instalment payments are not paid up, El-Sen will share the list and all the ministries, state offices, defence-related institutions, [public media corporation] BRT, mosques, water pumps and municipalities which owe money will have their electricity cut off next week,” he said.
