In Istanbul Kadıköy, a detention order has been issued for 2 more people regarding the murder of 14-year-old Mattia Ahmet Minguzzi, who was stabbed to death. The family's lawyer, Rezan Epözdemir, stated in a social media post, "A detention order has been issued by the esteemed Chief Public Prosecutor's Office regarding the new perpetrators that emerged following our recent application and complaint regarding the murder of Ahmet Minguzzi. The investigation is being legally followed effectively by our client family and us to ensure that the perpetrators are detained as soon as possible, the material truth is revealed, and they are punished in a similar manner."

PENALTY SOUGHT FOR ATTACK ON HIS GRAVE REVEALED

The public prosecutor requested a prison sentence of 1 to 4 years for Duran A, who damaged Minguzzi's grave, for the crime of "damaging places of worship and cemeteries" in the indictment he prepared. The indictment sent to the Bakırköy Criminal Court of First Instance has been accepted. The defendant is expected to appear before the judge in the coming days.

"I DID NOT RECEIVE INSTRUCTIONS OR MONEY"

It was learned that Duran A claimed in his statement to the prosecutor that he did not receive instructions or money from anyone to carry out the act, and he said: "I am staying on the grass under the Nurettin Bayraktar Bridge, which is near the cemetery. The place I stay is close to the grave of the deceased person. I make my living by collecting beverage cans and doing scrap work. On the day of the incident, I entered the cemetery to collect cans. It was nighttime. I do not remember what time it was. I learned that the grave of the deceased person was there from newspapers and news. I wanted to look at the grave. After that, I got angry about the murder of a small child. I lost control in that moment of anger. Then I pulled the flowers in the cemetery. I lifted and threw the fences. I do not know why I did this. I acted out of anger at that moment. I do not remember much about the subject anyway. I did not receive instructions or money from anyone to carry out this act."

WHAT HAPPENED?

15-year-old Mattia Ahmet Minguzzi was targeted by 2 attackers of the same age while he was at Kadıköy Tuesday Market to buy skateboarding equipment on January 24. After being stabbed and falling to the ground, he was also kicked in the head, and his struggle for life lasted for 14 days.

The Anadolu Chief Public Prosecutor's Office had prepared an indictment against the murder suspects for the crime of "intentionally killing a child," requesting a prison sentence of 18 to 24 years. The indictment prepared against the two defendants for "intentionally killing a child" was accepted by the Istanbul Anadolu 2nd High Criminal Court for Children. In the first hearing, it was decided to continue the detention of the two defendants, aged 15 and 16, and to postpone the next hearing to May 8.
