Where reports differ
Pro-government press A Haber and Hürriyet reported in detail that the sentence was set at 1 year 3 months, that an increase was applied on grounds the offense was committed via the press and broadcasting, followed by a discretionary reduction; they also included the prosecutor's opinion that the post exceeded the limits of freedom of expression.
Opposition-leaning press Sözcü wrote that the court handed down a 1-year prison sentence, highlighting the prosecutor's request for continued detention, the defense lawyers' objection to that request, and the reactions in the courtroom following the ruling.
