After 19 days of being lost in Diyarbakır, the first hearing has begun in the case regarding the murder of Narin Güran, whose lifeless body was found in a sack in a stream bed. The detained defendants, including her mother Yüksel, her brother Enes, her uncle Salim Güran, and Nevzat Bahtiyar, are facing charges of 'intentional murder of a child in complicity' with a request for aggravated life imprisonment. 4 DEFENDANTS PRESENT IN COURTNevzat Bahtiyar, uncle Salim Güran, brother Enes Güran, and mother Yüksel Güran, who were brought from the prisons where they are detained, were present in the courtroom. GÜLBEN ERGEN ADMITTED TO THE COURTROOMAn incident that occurred before the trial made headlines. Famous singer Gülben Ergen was admitted to the courtroom for the first hearing of the Narin Güran case, which she has been following closely and keeping in the public eye with her posts. COURTHOUSE CORRIDORS FILLED WITH SLOGANSDue to the police barricade, many journalists and lawyers from NGOs were not allowed into the courtroom, leading to protests where they chanted "Gülben out, lawyers in." The moments of tension in the courthouse corridors were recorded second by second with a mobile phone camera. FAMOUS ARTIST RESPONDS TO REACTIONSIn response to the reactions, Gülben Ergen stated on her X account, "Of course, I didn't just sit at home playing the keyboard hero; I came to the field the night before! I have taken ownership of our Narin girl’s case, which I have internalized for 78 days. I visited her grave at midnight. I am not here for my fame! Celebrities don’t act like this anyway :) I am here due to my responsibilities as a mother, my compassion, my conscience, and my association @CocuklarGulsun! I submitted my identity documents and criminal record days in advance and obtained permission," she said.
