New lawsuit against journalist Abdurrahman Gök

The 4th hearing of the lawsuit filed against journalist Abdurrahman Gök on charges of “being a member of a terrorist organization” and “making propaganda for a terrorist organization”, was held at Diyarbakır 5th High Criminal Court Seen.

Gök took the pictures of the murder of university student Kemal Kurkut, who was killed by Turkish police during the Newroz celebration in Amed in 2017.

Gök, who was asked to be imprisoned for up to 20 years, attended the hearing with his lawyer, Resul Tamur. A new lawsuit was filed against Gök with the allegation of “making propaganda for a terrorist organization” based on 5 posts he made on virtual media.

The court decided to hold the next hearing on 31 March to allow Abdurrahman Gök and his lawyer to make their defense regarding the unified indictment.
