Women in Mardin E-type Prison have created a newspaper "Özgür Gündem Zindan" (Dungeon). The original Özgür Gündem daily had been closed down in a police raid on the newspaper's building on August 16 and the "temporary closure" decision of the court was reported by the pro-government Yeni Şafak daily before the notice was even served to Özgür Gündem.
Özgür Gündem gazetesi, 16 Ağustos’ta gazete binasına yapılan polis baskınıyla kapatılmış, mahkemenin “geçici kapatma kararı” Özgür Gündem’e tebliğ edilmeden önce Yeni Şafak’ta yer almıştı.
