The objection to the second detention decision of journalist Selahattin Günday, detained in the investigation into the death of former MİT official Kaşif Kozinoğlu, was rejected.

The Silivri 2nd Criminal Court of First Instance rejected the objection without giving reasons. Günday had initially been arrested on charges of 'disclosing intelligence information' for reporting footage of Kozinoğlu entering the courthouse. Before the first appeal was concluded, the prosecutor's office sought a second arrest on charges of 'forming an organization to commit a crime.'
