The Supreme Court overturns the decision to sentence the former mayor of Has,

The Supreme Court has overturned the decision that sentenced former mayor Has Adem Lala to 1 year and 4 months in prison for the criminal offense of abuse of office.

In its decision-making, the third instance of the judiciary has decided to overturn the Appeal decision issued on June 17, 2021 and return it for trial in the same court, but with a different judicial body.

Lala and a municipal employee were charged in connection with the privatization of a public building in the Municipality of Has.

Due to the summary trial, he was ultimately sentenced to 8 months, while the court suspended him for a probationary period of 1 year and 4 months. The court also decided to exclude Lala from public office for 5 years.
