They were detained at home and accused of "expressing political interests through a white sheet of paper."All defendants denied any political intent, but the court did not take their explanations into account. As a result, one received 13 days of arrest, two were sentenced to 15 days, and another to 28 days. Additionally, during a search, two phones and two laptops were seized from one of the detainees.
