The European Court of Human Rights ruled that the Dara Radio TV official Türkan Aydoğan shall be paid 4,500 euros in compensation in February 2018 as the Court held in its unanimous ruling that Turkish authorities’ decision not to grant the station the required certificate, with reasons unknown, was in breach of Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights.
