Şamil Tayyar of daily Star wrote about the pressure on him and the lawsuits filed against him for the articles he wrote about the Ergenekon crime-gang case.
Tayyar is a columnist who has penned so many pieces on the case. Now he faces numerous legal suits. Tayyar has even been sentenced for writing about a wiretapping record on two individuals involved in the Ergenekon case. If you ask why the minutes on a dialogue between the two was included in the case file, I would write a separate piece and title it “Where is the judiciary heading?”"
