Turkish court halts emergency expropriation of 679 parcels in Akbelen
Milas 2nd Civil Court of First Instance stopped all proceedings related to the emergency expropriation of 679 parcels surrounding the Akbelen (İkizköy) forest area. The court classified the cases as “bekletici mesele” (stay matters) and ruled that land seizure and compensation assessments cannot proceed until the pending cancellation suits before the 6th Chamber of the Council of State (Danıştay) are finally decided.
The decision relies on the Constitutional Court’s ruling of 25 December 2024, which annulled a provision of the Expropriation Law that had allowed immediate enforcement of such cancellation cases. Lawyers Arif Ali Cangı and İpek Sarıca said the judgment could become a benchmark for similar emergency expropriation disputes across Turkey, reinforcing protection of property rights until higher‑court judgments are rendered.
