A Nobel Peace Prize nominee was among more than 200 people who went on trial in Turkey on Monday, accused of links to Kurdish militants, in a case which has drawn international criticism of Ankara's record on freedom of speech.
The 205 defendants are accused of maintaining ties to the Union of Kurdistan Communities (KCK), allegedly the urban wing of the militant separatist Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK). (Reuters)
