Saying that the decision was not satisfactory, Şeyma Çimendere, the lawyer of M.D.Y.'s family, said: "A penalty of 5 years and 9 months was assessed by the court committee. Our wish was that at least an discretionary reduction would not be applied. However, the courts can optionally impose a penalty reduction due to the absence of a criminal record and the attitude and behavior in front of the court, in the presence of the court.

Of course, there were certain situations and conditions, but these were only applicable within the limits of the law. It was impossible to go beyond this. After this stage, our only wish is that our authorities and state representatives please ensure a law revision that is appropriate to the changing conditions and situations of the society, taking all these issues into consideration.

Our disadvantage here was this; The law has changed, but even if underage age in the sense of the date of the event is excluded from the scope of penalty reduction, the law in favor had to be applied at the point of the date of the event. Unfortunately, we encountered such a result. Our decision is not final yet. A decision subject to appeal and judicial review. "We will try to get what we can from the higher judiciary," he said.
