The trial for two men accused of "insulting Turkishness" has been further extended when the judge granted prosecution demands for twelve more witnesses; something denied by a previous judge before he withdrew from hearing the case. According to a November 30 report from Compass Direct, defense attorneys see this decision as an attempt to simply drag out a case which has no credible evidence against the two Christians.
