The Press Ad Institute (BIK) continues with its official ad bans, which were deemed “violations of press freedom” by the Constitutional Court. Evrensel Daily was penalised once again with an official ad ban due to the news that reported the states of 159 students, who were detained as they were protesting the appointed rector at Boğaziçi University. The reason for the 5-day ad ban was that the newspaper described the detainment of the students, who were exposed to heavy violence in the meantime, as an “attack.” According to the Press Ad Institute, the news “attempt to create a negative perception in the society against the security forces loyal to the government.”
