Koçer Sason Yapıcı, who was tortured at Van Gürpınar District Security Directorate in 2016, was sentenced to 1 year and seven months of imprisonment due to “resisting the officer on duty and preventing duty.” Torturer security commander M.A.K., identified by Yapıcı, was acquitted of all charges imposed. Gürpınar Criminal Court of First Instance decided that the police commander “is understood [from the reports] to have gotten caught in strong grief against the resistance and insult he was exposed to during the detainment, therefore has beaten Yapıcı.”
