Konya court rulings on fatal incidents

Overview

A court in Konya, Turkey, has increased the prison sentence for İsmail Andaç to 25 years following an appeal. The sentence was issued for “killing with probable intent” after a high-speed traffic accident that resulted in the death of chemistry teacher Mevlüt Külcü.

Investigations revealed that Andaç was driving at 229 km/h in a 70 km/h zone and ran two red lights, striking Külcü’s vehicle. Although the defendant claimed he lost consciousness, forensic reports indicated he was under the influence of drugs and stimulants. The court determined that the driver foresaw the potential outcome but remained indifferent, noting he failed to apply the brakes.
