The Access Providers Association banned access to news articles published on Mynet, Polemik Haber and Güncel websites about statements made in the investigation into the criminal organization leader Ayhan Bora Kaplan, stating that police officers were paid salaries and given vehicles as gifts, on the grounds that they were “of the same content as news articles previously sanctioned by a judge’s decision”, again on the grounds of “personal rights” (March 8th).
