An expert report added to the file on Manisa Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Ferdi Zeyrek's death said the pool and the pump room were absent from the original architectural project. The panel found four people primarily and nine secondarily at fault, and attributed no fault to Zeyrek.
According to the report by five experts from Dokuz Eylül University, the swimming pool had not been marked as a shared area in the building permits. The renovation project approved by Yunusemre Municipality on 20 November 2020 included the phrase "ornamental pools added." The panel concluded that Zeyrek would not have faced mortal danger if the electrical installation had been grounded.
