After leaving prison, Karaarslan first shared a white heart emoji, followed by a white dove emoji on her social media account. She then shared a note with her followers saying, "May Allah not let anyone down."
The post quickly received hundreds of comments. Karaarslan also drew the attention of her followers with posts from the Kuruçeşme coastline.
BANNED FOR LIFE BY TFF
Elif Karaarslan came to the agenda after the Turkish Football Federation's decision following allegations of inappropriate images circulating on social media.
With the decision approved by the Arbitration Committee, Karaarslan and observer Orhan Erdemir were banned from refereeing for life. Denying the allegations against her, Karaarslan initiated a legal process and left refereeing to focus on social media content creation.
HER SOCIAL MEDIA EARNINGS HAD BEEN A TOPIC
After Karaarslan started content creation, allegations that she earned high income through a paid subscription system were also widely discussed on social media for a long time.
