The sentence of the defendant who committed violence against a pregnant woman has been determined.

The defendant, who brutally beat the woman he lived with in the middle of the street in Akhisar district of Manisa, was sentenced to 9 months and 15 days for the crime of insult and 10 months in prison for the crime of intentional injury. The defendant, Yılmaz Akman, was released under judicial control. Sude Naz Atak's lawyer, Meray Mollaibrahimoğlu Eraslan, stated that they would appeal the verdict.

On August 16, during the incident, Yılmaz Akman and Sude Naz Atak, who were reported to be living together, started arguing in the street. Yılmaz Akman, who caught Sude Naz Atak, who was trying to escape, in front of a tea house, began to apply violence to the pregnant woman in front of her child and bystanders. Yılmaz Akman, who hit Sude Naz Atak multiple times with a stick, was later detained by police teams who arrived at the scene when he was about to be lynched by citizens. Yılmaz Akman, who was referred to the court and had 18 criminal records, was arrested and sent to prison. In the second hearing held at the Akhisar 4th Criminal Court of First Instance, witness statements were heard. One of the witnesses, Erkan Çiftçi, stated that Sude Naz came to the customers in the tea house asking for help, and then Yılmaz Akman came and assaulted Sude Naz.

Yılmaz Akman's brother, Mehmet Akman, stated that on the day of the incident, they started arguing in the car because Sude Naz did not want to go to Yılmaz Akman's village. He later mentioned that Sude Naz got out of the car with her child and that Yılmaz Akman got out of the vehicle from behind, adding that he did not see what happened.

Yılmaz Akman, who admitted to committing the crime, stated that the incident occurred in a fit of anger and requested his release. In the case, Yılmaz Akman was sentenced to 9 months and 15 days for the crime of insult and 10 months in prison for the crime of intentional injury, while Akman was released under judicial control.

"THE PENALTY FOR INJURY TODAY MAY RESULT IN DEATH TOMORROW"

After the hearing, Sude Naz Atak's lawyer, Meray Mollaibrahimoğlu Eraslan, stated to the press that the case has concluded but they did not receive the result they expected, saying, "We are saddened by the conclusion of the case due to the violence and insult that occurred. Because the penalties imposed emphasize the importance of violence against women, as always. The sentence is so low that the defendant is released, and Sude Naz Atak currently has no safety. The penalty for injury today may perhaps result in a death tomorrow. Therefore, we want to express our sadness due to the inadequacy of the sentences given."
