Academic Özlem Şendeniz has been acquitted after the Constitutional court ruled in July that the sentences violate the academics' freedom of expression.
A court ruled for a verdict of acquittal for the first time in the trial of the Academics for Peace who have been charged with "propagandizing for a terrorist organization" for having signed the declaration entitled "We will not be a party to this crime."
