The defendant who killed his ex-girlfriend in Eskişehir was granted a reduction in sentence for good behavior.

The 23-year-old Hasan Fakıoğlu, who shot his ex-girlfriend Ayşenur Çolakoğlu in the head and chest with a gun, killing her, was sentenced to life imprisonment with a reduced sentence for good behavior in the trial where he was held in custody. Mesut Çolakoğlu, the grieving father, stated that their objection to the removal of the reduced sentence for good behavior was not accepted by the Court of Appeal, and said, "Since we find the reduced sentence for good behavior unjustified, we are submitting an appeal petition to the Court of Cassation."

Male hairdresser Hasan Fakıoğlu went to the house of Ayşenur Çolakoğlu, whom he had separated from 4 months ago, in Şirintepe Neighborhood, Yeşilkayalar Street, Tepebaşı district on December 17, 2022. Fakıoğlu shot Çolakoğlu, who was a female hairdresser, in the head and chest with a gun during the argument that broke out there. Ayşenur Çolakoğlu, who was taken to Yunus Emre State Hospital, could not be saved.

REDUCED SENTENCE FOR GOOD BEHAVIOR APPLIED

The defendant Hasan Fakıoğlu, who was tried at the Eskişehir 3rd Heavy Penal Court, was sentenced to life imprisonment with a reduced sentence for good behavior for the crime of "qualified intentional homicide against a woman" in the decision hearing held in February. In addition, the defendant Fakıoğlu was sentenced to 10 months in prison and a fine of 500 liras for carrying an unlicensed firearm. Muhammet Ali F., the roommate who was accused of aiding the murder and faced up to 20 years in prison, was acquitted by the court on the grounds that the legal elements of the crime were not established.

After the court's decision, Mesut Çolakoğlu, Ayşenur Çolakoğlu's father, appealed to the Ankara Regional Court of Justice (Court of Appeal) for the removal of the reduced sentence for good behavior through his lawyer. The Regional Court rejected Mesut Çolakoğlu's objection. Çolakoğlu stated that they have taken the reduced sentence for good behavior to the Court of Cassation, stating that the defendant brutally killed his daughter by shooting her with 4 bullets.

"I WILL CONTINUE THE LEGAL STRUGGLE"

The grieving father said, "The person who killed my daughter was sentenced to life imprisonment with a reduced sentence for good behavior. Since we find the reduced sentence for good behavior unjustified, we appealed to the Court of Appeal. Our appeal was not accepted by the Court of Appeal. We are submitting an appeal petition to the Court of Cassation with our lawyer. I will continue the legal struggle for the defendant who killed my daughter to receive the harshest punishment."
