The Turkish Journalists Association says a court has issued an injunction halting the government's decision to bar journalists from police buildings.
 
The government had imposed the restrictions last month amid media revelations of a massive corruption investigation that has ensnared former government ministers's sons.
 
Journalist groups protested the move, saying it amounted to a censorship of the scandal and took the decision to court, arguing it was unconstitutional.
 
The Turkish Journalists Association says Friday that an Istanbul court issued a temporary injunction overturning the government's decision until further deliberations on the case.
 
Two Cabinet ministers' sons and the head of a state-owned bank were arrested on bribery charges over the scandal involving alleged illicit money transfers to Iran and bribery for construction projects.
