Main opposition CHP and pro-Kurdish DEM Party, which control local administrations in more than half of Turkey's provinces, declare resistance against the newly enacted law.

DEM Party Spokesperson Ayşegül Doğan was banned from boarding a flight at Istanbul Airport to attend the meeting of the Social Affairs Committee of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe in Paris. The MP for the province of Şırnak, whose ban on traveling abroad was lifted in December 2023, was presented a “restriction” decision dated 2020.

Green Left MP Ayşegül Doğan made reference to the book while discussing violations of freedom of expression against Kurdish media outlets.

Journalist Ayşegül Doğan has been sentenced to 6 years, 3 months in prison. Put on trial over her journalistic activities, Doğan was the Program Coordinator of the İMC TV, which was closed by a Statutory Decree after the coup attempt in 2016.

Doğan is facing up to 15 years in prison over her meetings and interviews with politicians.

In his opinion as to the accusations, the prosecutor has demanded that journalist Ayşegül Doğan be penalized for “being a member of the organization.” Doğan was the Program Coordinator of the İMC TV, which was closed by a Statutory Decree.
