Police clash with people who gathered in front of the courthouse in the central city of Kayseri on January 21, 2015 after the judgement of two Turkish police sparked uproar. The two Turkish police officers were jailed for at least 10 years over the killing of a teenage protestor during 2013 demonstrations against the rule of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. The sentences were far lower than the life imprisonment demanded by prosecutors.
