TLDR

  • The Bakırköy 33rd High Criminal Court in Turkey has issued a public notice regarding a defendant convicted of theft.
  • Babamyrat Amnazarov was sentenced to 4 years and 2 months in prison for "theft by locking" under TCK.142/2-h and 62.

In a notice published on April 17, 2026, the Bakırköy 33rd High Criminal Court in Turkey has announced that a defendant, Babamyrat Amnazarov, born in 1994, has been sentenced to 4 years and 2 months in prison. The conviction is for the crime of "theft by locking" (TCK.142/2-h, 62). Despite diligent efforts to locate Amnazarov and serve him with the court's reasoned decision dated February 26, 2026, he remains at large. Consequently, as per Article 29 of Law No. 7201 on Notifications, the court has ordered that the summary of the ruling be published in a nationally circulated newspaper and on a general internet news site. The notification will be considered served 15 days after the publication date. If Amnazarov does not appeal within two weeks of this deemed service, the decision will become final, and the costs of the publication will be recovered from him. This public notification is a necessary step when a defendant evades legal process, ensuring that justice, though delayed, can proceed.
