In the case of 15-year-old Ahmet Minguzzi, who lost his life in Kadıköy, Istanbul, the prosecution had requested in its final opinion that defendants U.B. and B.B. be sentenced to 24 years in prison each for the crime of "intentional killing of a child."
During the hearing, the Minguzzi family left the courtroom as the defense attorneys began to speak. Yasemin Minguzzi later returned to the courtroom. The court adjourned the hearing until 13:30.
