After completing his interrogation at the prosecutor's office, Saran was referred to the Forensic Medicine Institute (ATK) for hair and blood samples to be taken. After his procedures were completed there, Saran was brought back to the Istanbul Courthouse.

Saran was referred to the peace criminal court with a request for judicial control in the form of a travel ban due to the charges of "providing narcotic substances," "drug use," and "facilitating drug use," and the court issued a judicial control measure in line with the request.

In the report prepared by the ATK, it was determined that Saran's hair samples tested positive for drugs, while the test results for blood, urine, and nail samples were negative.
