In a statement shared on social media, Solyalı said he could not accept the justification put forward by the Turkish judiciary in a case that should have set an example for a safer future in Turkey. Recalling that public officials were tried in the Isias case and that although three defendants were sentenced they were released, Solyalı underlined that the most disturbing element was the reasoning in the written verdict, which linked the distinction between life and death to “chance.”
“Kamu görevi, şansa bırakılacak bir alan değildir” (“Public duty is not an area that can be left to chance”), Solyalı said, adding that a public official cannot gamble while carrying out their responsibilities and that no one has the right to sign documents affecting human lives by “relying on luck.”
Solyalı stressed that the issue is not merely a legal debate, but one that directly concerns the creation of a safe future, public responsibility, the seriousness of the state and the value placed on human life. “This matter cannot be left to chance,” he said, noting that the verdict has deeply wounded public conscience.
Referring to the court’s written reasoning, Solyalı also criticised the assessment that the defendants’ actions could not be classified as “probable intent” and were instead described as “conscious negligence” on the grounds that they acted by “trusting their luck,” stating that this interpretation was unacceptable.
