Famous singer Kenan Doğulu experienced a nightmare with a mysterious message on his phone. According to claims, the message sent to the famous singer included the words: 'We have your hotel footage. Deposit 300 thousand dollars into the account we specified. Otherwise, we will have to fight.' It was learned that Doğulu, who was in great shock, immediately took action, believing he was facing a professional blackmail network.

According to the information obtained; a blackmail message was sent to Kenan Doğulu's phone stating, "We have your hotel footage. If you don't deposit 300 thousand dollars into the specified account, we will have to fight." Without wasting any time in response to the message, the famous artist went to the prosecutor's office and filed a criminal complaint.

INVESTIGATION COMPLETED: NON-PROSECUTION DECISION ISSUED 

Upon the complaint, a comprehensive investigation was launched by the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office. The prosecutor's office, meticulously examining the allegations of "threat" and "blackmail," reached a striking conclusion despite technical surveillance.

As a result of the investigations, which also involved cybercrime units, the identities of the accounts and individuals from which the messages were sent could not be identified.

PROSECUTOR'S DECISION 

The prosecutor's office issued a non-prosecution decision on the case, citing that the act in question "remained at the attempt stage" since no money transfer occurred and the suspects' "identities could not be determined."

Following this shocking development, whether the famous singer Kenan Doğulu's camp will appeal the decision has become a matter of curiosity.
