The lack of action by the police authorities in assessing the belatedly discovered notification within the case documents led to a non-prosecution decision. Subsequently, intervening lawyers have brought their grievances to the high court.

"Records of what an already organized apparatus would do during a critical period that changed Turkey's political history, which had been collected in advance, was very disturbing to see for all of us," says Senem Doğanoğlu, an intervening attorney in the case related to the 2015 Ankara bombings that resulted in death of 109 people.

The court has refused to hear the officers who were allegedly with a witness when he had phone talks with an ISIS member involved in the bombings that claimed 103 lives.
