Statement from Minister Göktaş regarding the verdict in the Narin Güran murder case

In a statement on her social media account, Göktaş noted that they had promised as a Ministry to closely follow the process to ensure that those responsible for the death of Narin, whose pain has scorched hearts, would be punished in the harshest way possible, and that they have fulfilled this promise with determination.

Emphasizing that the lawyers, including the Ministry's General Director of Legal Services, attended all hearings, embraced Narin as if she were their own child, and worked with great devotion to ensure justice was served, Göktaş remarked, "No verdict can bring back our daughter Narin, a child of Turkey, but the sentences given to the defendants have brought some relief to our hearts. I thank our lawyers who defended Narin's rights with great devotion and effort throughout this process and ensured that justice was served for Narin."
