The European Court of Human Rights ruled on May 31st, 2022, in the case "Taner Kılıç vs. Turkey" in favour of Taner Kılıç: The Court did not find any evidence, which would have justified his detention in 2017. Turkey was ordered to pay $26,300 (€24,500) in damages and $10,735 (€10,000) in costs.
During the hearing on March 8th, Taner Kılıç and Günal Kurşun held their defence speeches.
The prior court rulings against Günal Kurşun, Idil Eser and Özlem Dalkıran were overturned. Ruling against Taner Kılıç was refused due to missing investigation.
Taner Kılıç: six years and three months imprisonment. Idıl Eser, Günal Kurşun and Özlem Dalkiran: two years and one month imprisonment. Acquittals for everybody else.
