Probably the prosecutor will present his view on March 21, and ask for our conviction. This is for taking part in a solidarity movement defending the existence of a pro-Kurdish newspaper. And this will be followed by sentencing.
I have little doubt about that because the same thing has been happening since January: more than a dozen prominent journalists (Nadire Mater, Hasan Cemal etc.) and human rights defenders (Sanar Yurdatapan, Ayşe Batumlu etc.) have been fined or had prison sentences postponed, although they had no responsibility for the contents published in Özgur Gündem, but just extended their solidarity in a symbolic manner towards this media outlet that is subject to a judicial crackdown.
