Sakarya prosecutor seeks prison terms in 14-year-old's death case
A lawsuit has been filed in Sakarya, Turkey, regarding the death of 14-year-old Murat İmrağ, who was shot and killed on July 24 in the Arifiye district. Prosecutors are seeking a prison sentence of 19 to 27 years for 16-year-old Y. D. S. on charges of premeditated murder against a child.
The indictment suggests the shooting was not an accident, despite the suspect's claims. Evidence cited includes the suspect's decision to return the licensed handgun to a bedside drawer after the shooting, images related to firearm use found on his phone, and witness testimony stating the suspect had shown the weapon to the victim a year prior. While gunshot residue was found on the victim, none was detected on the suspect.
Additionally, the owner of the licensed firearm, F. K., faces a potential prison sentence of up to 6 years for causing death through negligence, as the indictment alleges the weapon was not stored with necessary care.
