Additional expert report regarding Ferdi Zeyrek's death by electrocution has been completed.

In the report prepared by Izmir Dokuz Eylül University, it was evaluated that there were years of negligence in the incident that caused Zeyrek's death.

In the report, it was stated that the pool and lighting systems added later to the house created a total electrical load of 4 thousand 680 watts, and since this value exceeded the limit of 4 thousand 136 watts determined within the scope of the regulation, the project should have been rearranged, but this was not done.

In the report, the expert committee found 4 people primarily at fault and 9 people secondary. Among the people considered to be primarily at fault in the report were N.B, who carried out the electrical installation, H.A, who repaired the pool water pump motor, M.G, the building contractor, and H.İ, who installed the engine after the repair.

Among those considered to be collaterally at fault were Yunusemre Municipality personnel A.Ö, E.K, M.S and Ö.T, building inspection officers R.A, H.Ş and M.Ç, as well as pool manager Y.Ö and site officer A.S.

The report stated that Ferdi Zeyrek was not at fault for the incident. The report stated that it was not possible for Zeyrek to foresee that there was a dangerous level of leakage electrical current in the machine room of the pool in his personal residence, in the light of the information in the file, and that there was no provision in the relevant regulations and standards that held users responsible.

It was also stated in the report that the defendant stated that Zeyrek exchanged information with other owners during the planning and construction stages of the site where the house where the incident occurred was located, but that there was no signature or approval from him in the official documents regarding the project design, manufacturing and inspection processes of the pool, machine room and installation.

In the expert report, it was evaluated that more than one negligence and deficiency was effective in the occurrence of the incident. It was stated that the relevant standards were not complied with when building the pool and the machine room, the necessary projects for the pool and its installations were not prepared, the leakage current relay was not actively working and the machine room was located very close to the pool.

The report also stated that although it was determined that there was a puddle on the floor of the engine room on the morning of the day of the incident and that the electrical system was not working normally, this situation was not reported to Ferdi Zeyrek. At the end of the report, the expert panel presented their evaluations to the court. The hearing will be held on Friday, October 9.
