In the investigation launched against celebrities promoting illegal gambling advertisements on social media, Serdar Ortaç, who was taken into custody, had been placed under house arrest. The famous singer Serdar Ortaç's house arrest and judicial control decision has been lifted.
The Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office had pressed the button for the fight against illegal gambling. Initially, an investigation was launched against many social media influencers, including Mehmet Ali Erbil and Serdar Ortaç, who have millions of followers, and a detention order was issued. While a large number of social media influencers were arrested, house arrest was ordered for Erbil and Ortaç.
WILL APPEAR IN COURT ON DECEMBER 24
As the investigation expanded, an indictment was prepared against Serdar Ortaç for the crime of "promoting and advertising illegal gambling," with a prison sentence of 1 to 3 years requested. The Criminal Court of First Instance, which accepted the indictment, decided that Ortaç would appear in court on December 24. Meanwhile, in the interim decision, it was ruled that Serdar Ortaç's house arrest would continue.
HOUSE ARREST DECISION LIFTED
Serdar Ortaç's lawyer, Esennur Ezgi, submitted a petition to lift the judicial control in the form of house arrest and made an objection. The Heavy Penal Court, which evaluated the objection, lifted Serdar Ortaç's house arrest.
