The civil court has ruled that Azerbaijani flags won't be prohibited
at the stadium during the Armenian-Turkish football match. Last week,
Bursa's municipal administration had prohibited the flags, after
which several Bursa residents appealed to the courts, stating that
the decision was in contradiction with the Turkish constitution.
Turkish media have also announced that the decision would be a severe
violation of human rights. On this note, the court overturned the
city administration's decision. The Azerbaijani flags will now be
allowed, but visitors will not be allowed to bring posters and signs
with writing on them into the stadium.
