The Constitutional Court (AYM) denied 15 different applications made by academics Yaman Akdeniz and Kerem Altıparmak within freedom of expression on access bans. The application involved 615 contents, including Twitter accounts banned to access due to “national security and public order” as well as news websites. AYM claimed that those making the application are not the victims. Akdeniz indicated that with the AYM decree, all access bans brought by the Information and Telecommunication Authority (TIB) and Gölbaşı Criminal Court of Peace following the claim of the Prime Ministry are effectively approved; therefore they will carry the case to the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR).
