Defendants, whose trial is still ongoing, benefit from the regulation of the Provisional Article 6 of the Law No. 5275, provided that the crime was committed before 30.03.2020 and the verdict is finalized. Regardless of the stage of the trial, whenever the criminal conviction becomes final, the reduction of execution and probation in the Provisional Article 6 shall be applied with the finalization of the sentence. While evaluating the detention conditions of the suspects who are being held in pre-trial detention, the reduction in execution and probation period in the Provisional Article 6 of the Law No. 5275 will definitely be taken into account. The detainees whose criminal qualifications fall within the scope of Provisional Article 6 of Law No. 5275 will be released earlier.
