The Ankara 34th High Criminal Court released the reasoning for the 4-year prison sentence given to Umitcan Uygun over the death of Sema Esen. The court acquitted him of the charge of torment.

The reasoned verdict said Uygun had incited Esen to suicide and reinforced her decision. The court rejected the "airplane mode" defence. It ruled that the torment charge had not been proven.
