All 22 detained defendants of the Hopa trial in Ankara were released pending trial at the hearing on 9 December. A total of 28 defendants are tried on the grounds of protests against massive police interventions against anti-government demonstrations in Hopa in May.

Seven people on trial in relation to the incidents in Hopa in June this year were now acquitted of charges of "making propaganda for a terrorist organization". The remaining allegations put up against them will be handled by a different court.
