The Silivri Chief Public Prosecutor's Office has requested the autopsy records of Cem Garipoğlu, who died by suicide in prison 15 years after murdering Münevver Karabulut in Istanbul.

The Chief Public Prosecutor's Office has taken a new decision regarding the death of Cem Garipoğlu, who was sentenced to 24 years in prison for the murder of Münevver Karabulut on November 18, 2011, and died by suicide on October 10, 2014, while being held at the Silivri No. 5 Prison.
