Prison Sentence for "Azadiya Welat" Distributor Altay

Azadiya Welat distributor Altay was found guilty of "making propaganda for an organization". The court decided on the grounds of a picture in one of the issues showing PKK leader Öcalan holding up the daily with both of his hands. Defendant Ete was also convicted because he had unfolded pieces of cloth with the organization's emblem at the opening ceremony of an office.
