TOPSHOT - Turkish journalist Mehmet Altan poses with his wife Umit Altan on June 27, 2018 outside the Silivri prison near Istanbul after he was freed following almost two years in jail in a case that intensified concerns about press freedom. Altan, first arrested in September 2016 for alleged links to the group blamed for the 2016 failed coup, was released following an earlier court ruling, the P24 press freedom group said in a statement. His conviction and life sentence have not been quashed and he remains subject to a travel ban and obligation to report to authorities regularly. The constitutional court in January had ruled that Altan should be released on the grounds his rights had been violated but a lower criminal court ignored this. / AFP PHOTO / DOGAN NEWS AGENCY / Ibrahim MASE / Turkey OUT
