Midyat court accepts indictment in Bedriye Naz death

Overview

The investigation into the death of 27-year-old Bedriye Naz, who fell from a fifth-floor balcony in Mardin’s Midyat district on August 11, has progressed to the indictment stage. The Midyat Heavy Penal Court has accepted the indictment against her husband, 31-year-old Levent Naz.

While Levent Naz previously claimed his wife committed suicide following an argument over mobile phone messages, the indictment incorporates evidence suggesting a pattern of jealousy and domestic control, including allegations that he restricted the victim’s ability to leave the house. Security footage reportedly shows the suspect leaving the residence and purchasing a knife from a market shortly after the incident occurred.

Witness testimonies continue to contradict the suspect’s claims. Neighbors reported hearing Bedriye Naz scream, ‘Save me, Levent will kill me,’ before the fall. Furthermore, witnesses, including a neighbor and a driver, reported that Levent Naz made admissions of guilt, stating, ‘I threw her down, I killed her.’

Levent Naz remains in custody as the legal process continues. The victim, a mother of four, was laid to rest in the Acırlı neighborhood, while her sister, Filiz Dilekçi, continues to call for justice.
