Independent Communication Network (BIA) launched its January-March 2019 Media Monitoring Report. According to the report, 106 journalists entered April in prisons. 204 journalists and media representatives stood trial in the three-month period with claims of 10 heavy life imprisonment and a total imprisonment for 2,089 years. 16 journalists were sentenced to more than 50 years of imprisonment in these lawsuits. On the other hand, three of nine journalists, who were on trial due to insulting President Erdoğan, were sentenced to a total judicial fine of 28 thousand TLs. Six investigations opened due to “insulting Erdoğan” are ongoing and one has concluded with non-prosecution. Thus, 16 journalists have become defendants/suspects of Article 299 of the Turkish Penal Code (TCK) within the last three months.
