Ece Erken had previously filed a criminal complaint against her obsessive fan Erdal Çınar, alleging that he threatened her and her late husband Şafak Mahmutyazıcıoğlu by sending messages to her mobile phone.

At the hearing held in October 2021, the complainant Ece Erken and the defendant, who was tried without arrest, were present, and an indictment had been prepared against Çınar.

'THE COURT HAS DECIDED HE SHOULD BE COMMITTED TO A PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL'

Announcing the court's decision from last year, Erken had stated: "The case that Şafak filed years ago against the stalker who has been following me, and which my esteemed lawyer Helin Ballıkaya was involved in, concluded today, and the court has decided that Erdal should be committed to a psychiatric hospital. May God be pleased. It was what Şafak wanted most."

Famous presenter Ece Erken announced in a statement on her social media account yesterday that her stalker Erdal Çınar, who was receiving treatment in a psychiatric hospital, has been released and showed up at her door.

'HE WAITED AT THE BASE OF A TREE IN ACARKENT'

Erken used the following expressions in her posts:

How can this person come all the way to my doorstep? Why is he still out? Why is he not receiving treatment after being diagnosed with schizophrenia? He waited at the base of a tree in Acarkent at 4:30 in the morning; we have made every report possible. Why is he out? Erdal Çınar is threatening to kidnap me..."
