Criminal court proceedings in Gaziantep
Overview
Legal proceedings have been documented in the Gaziantep 1st High Criminal Court regarding two separate violent incidents.
In one case, the court issued sentences following a fatal armed attack that occurred in March 2025 in the Şehitkamil district. Three defendants received 12 years and 6 months in prison for each of the two murders, while two juvenile defendants were sentenced to 4 years, 5 months, and 10 days for aiding the killings. One defendant was acquitted due to insufficient evidence.
In a separate matter, the court held its sixth hearing regarding the fatal stabbing of Mikail U. during a dispute with his cousin, Bekir U., over business debts. The defendant claimed he had no intention to kill or injure the victim and requested acquittal. The court has maintained the defendant’s arrest and referred the file to the prosecution for a final opinion.
