  Acelya Toprak added another silver to the host nation's tally in the same event after missing out on the top honour to Canada's Christa Deguchi. 
  Northern Ireland picked up bronze medals in both the men's and women's categories. 
  Nathon Burns, who suffered a disqualification in an earlier bout, recovered strongly to defeat Scotland's Alexander Short in the -66kg category, while Coventry-born Yasmin Javadian celebrated a Golden Score victory over Jacira Ferreira of Mozambique in the -52kg contest.
