The Situation Of Detained/Incommunicado Defendants Under The New Amnesty Law
Defendants who are still on trial benefit from the Provisional Article 6 of the Law No. 5275, provided that the crime was committed before 30.03.2020 and upon the finalization of the verdict. Regardless of the stage of the trial, regardless of when the criminal conviction is finalized, the execution discount and probation measures in Provisional Article 6 are applied upon the finalization of the verdict. While evaluating the detention conditions of the defendants under arrest, the execution discount and probation period under Provisional Article 6 of Law No. 5275 shall be taken into consideration. Detainees whose offense qualification falls within the scope of Provisional Article 6 of Law No. 5275 will be released earlier.
