DİHA reporter Sebahattin Koyuncu had been detained during the house raids in Silopi and was arrested in Cizre for the news he had made and content he had shared on social media.

Koyuncu had been released by Silopi Criminal Court August 26, but was later detained again due to the objection of Cizre Criminal Court. Koyuncu’s interviews with HDP parliamentarians and the content he shared on social media were shown as the reason for Koyuncu’s alleged "membership in an organization" and "propagating for an organization."

Koyuncu was taken to Şırnak T type Closed Prison after his arrest.
