The Cumhuriyet newspaper's editor-in-chief Can Dundar and Ankara bureau chief Erdem Gul walked free from the Silivri jail on the outskirts of Istanbul to be greeted by jubilant supporters and family.
Dündar and Gül petitioned to the Constitutional Court for their release, indicating that they were subjected to a violation of their rights.
The Constitutional Court will inform the relevant court of their decision on the release of the two journalists from prison.
The journalists were placed under arrest in late November over a report in May that claimed to show proof that a consignment of weapons seized at the border in January 2014 was bound for Syria.
