The judicial year begins today: Supreme Court members visit Anıtkabir

Supreme Court members visited Anıtkabir for the opening of the judicial year.

Supreme Court President Ömer Kerkez, Supreme Court Chief Prosecutor Muhsin Şentürk, Supreme Court Secretary General Fatih Belviranlı, and Supreme Court members walked along the Lion Road to reach the mausoleum of the Great Leader Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.

Following President Kerkez's laying of a wreath at the mausoleum, a moment of silence was observed.

After taking a commemorative photo on the steps of Anıtkabir, Kerkez signed the Anıtkabir Special Book in the National Pact Tower.

Ömer Kerkez wrote the following in the book:

"Dear Atatürk,

As the Presidency of the Supreme Court, which considers the power of justice and the rule of law among the most important values, we are deeply honored to be in your presence with our entire management staff at the beginning of the 2024-2025 judicial year.

The Republic you founded was built upon the principles of a state of law, and as the trustees of this legacy, we are working with all our might for the manifestation of justice.

We will continue to defend the rule of law and human rights by protecting judicial independence and impartiality at the highest level.

In our goal of reaching the level of contemporary civilization that you have shown us as the founder of our Republic, we will continue on our path with the light of justice.

We remember you with gratitude, appreciation, and respect. May your soul rest in peace..."
