	DİYARBAKIR- Prosecutor of the investigation, who has not prepared the indictment of 16 arrested journalists for 9 months, said: "Digital documents are too many."

	22 people, including 20 journalists, were detained in the operation carried out in Diyarbakır on 8 June. During the operation, the production companies Pel, Piya and Ari, where the journalists work with their homes, and the JINNEWS office were also searched. Police blockade continued for more than 30 days in Piya and Ari Yapım under the name of "search", and even their employees were not allowed to enter the building.
