Recently, some remarkable events in Turkey have aroused great repercussions in different segments of society. The murder of Narin Güran is one of these incidents. The murder of Narin Güran, a little girl, was a shocking event that took place in Diyarbakır and was on the agenda of the country.
In the investigation carried out into the murder, several family members, especially the suspected uncle Salim Güran, were arrested. Evidence such as DNA findings and telephone signals play an important role in the clarification of the case. This incident has brought many allegations about the complex structure of family relations (TRT News)(DW).
Cem Garipoğlu came to the agenda in Turkey in 2009 with the murder of Münevver Karabulut and this brutal murder caused a great outrage in Turkey. After killing Münevver Karabulut, Garipoğlu dismembered her body and threw it into a garbage container, which caused a great public outcry. Garipoğlu surrendered after being on the run for a long period of time and there was widespread debate in the media and society throughout the trial process. As a result, Cem Garipoğlu was sentenced to life imprisonment; however, he committed suicide in prison in 2014. This event triggered a deep debate on youth crime, domestic relations and the justice system in Turkey.
Semih Çelik is linked to another recent criminal case in Turkey. Çelik made a name for himself in a brutal murder. The judicial process of Çelik, who was accused of murdering his relatives, was widely publicised and the case was closely followed in the context of the increasing violence in Turkey (DW). Especially in cases of brutal murders, Turkey's justice system and the conditions in prisons have raised public security concerns.
The Discord ban is another event that has caused great repercussions in the digital world. Discord, a platform used by millions of users in Turkey, attracts the attention of the authorities due to the sharing of illegal content from time to time. In particular, Discord has been subjected to access blocking in Turkey in some periods due to allegations of hate speech, content related to terrorist organisations or the organisation of illegal activities. These bans have reopened the debate on the balance between freedom of expression and security concerns.

All of these events stand out as developments that have prompted a rethinking of the pursuit of justice and security measures in both social and digital platforms in Turkey and make a strong contribution to the ongoing debates on prisons, digital surveillance and the limits of social media.
In addition, the International Court of Justice case against Israel is also on the international agenda. This case, in which Israel is on trial on charges of genocide due to the protests in Gaza, has also had a wide repercussion in Turkey. Especially in the hearings held at the Court of Justice, the fact that the events in Gaza were discussed in the context of human rights violations and genocide crimes further deepened the discussions on Israel (TRT Haber). In addition to this, the predictions of an expansion of Israel in the Middle East to include Lebanon, Iran and Turkey must have strengthened, as the Turkish Grand National Assembly convened in a closed session for four hours with this agenda.
