Serhat Albayrak, the brother of President Erdoğan's son-in-law, had sued Prof. Akdeniz for sharing a court order banning a news article about his offshore accounts in Malta.

Çalık Holding had filed a suit for damages against the reporter for "insult and slander."

The court of appeal has reversed the prison sentence given to journalist Pelin Ünker in the lawsuit filed by Binali Yıldırım and his sons for having reported on Paradise Papers. The court has upheld the judicial fine given to her in the same lawsuit.

In the lawsuit filed against former reporter of Cumhuriyet newspaper Pelin Ünker upon the complaint of Berat Albayrak and Serhat Albayrak for having reported on Paradise Papers, the court has dismissed the case due to statute of limitations.

Former Managing Editor of Evrensel Newspaper Sarı, against whom Minister of Energy and Natural Resources of the time Berat Albayrak and his brother Serhat Albayrak filed a lawsuit of insult and libel for reporting on Paradise Papers, has been acquitted.

Former reporter of the daily Cumhuriyet Pelin Ünker has been sentenced to 1 year, 1 month and 15 days in prison and fined because of the stories that she wrote about the then Prime Minister Binali Yıldırım’s and his sons' companies in Malta.

In the weekly group meeting, CHP Leader Kılıçdaroğlu has spoken on Paradise Papers and imprisoned journalists.

PM Yıldırım has commented on the documents demonstrating that his sons have offshore account and companies in Malta, and said, “I hereby urge that any sort of investigation, be it financial or legal, can be launched”.
