The Constitutional Court has ruled that phone tapping over anonymous notifications violated rights and the Chief Public Prosecutor's Office did not investigate the role of the Directorate of Telecommunication and Communication in the tappings.

The Court of Appeals deemed the publishing of private telephone conversations in the news contrary to the law. The publishing of private phone talks partly related to the Ergenekon trial were the bone of contention. One court member voted against the decision.
