Protests mark beginning of coup-plot case against Turkish fan group çArşı

A trial against 35 individuals associated with Beşiktaş’s football fan group çArşı on charges of “attempting to overthrow the government” during last year’s Gezi Park protests has started at Istanbul’s Çağlayan Courthouse.

The group received massive support from a crowd that included main opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP) deputies.
