The trial was subsequently postponed nine times; in the end, it began in May 2017. During the proceedings of May 2017, the members of the group of students declared that they were being detained on account of their political views on the right to self-determination of the Saharan people and informed the judge that they had been subjected to torture and forced to sign the confessions that had been put forward as the only evidence against them. They further informed the court that, during their initial questioning, they had been tortured and had been asked only about their political beliefs. They added that they had not known what they were being charged with while they were in police custody because they had not been informed of the charges until they were brought before the investigating judge. They also demanded to undergo a medical examination in accordance with the Manual on the Effective Investigation and Documentation of Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (Istanbul Protocol).
