    Obscenity Crimes within the Scope of Supreme Court Decisions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    SUPREME COURT OF APPEALS, 18TH CRIMINAL DIVISION, CASE NO: 2015\/43159, DECISION NO: 2017\/1689<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201c"Considering that images of anal or oral sex, homosexual or group sexual intercourse, or masturbation with an object cannot be considered 'unnatural' in isolation, and that this concept describes relationships that have no place in sexual life, are degrading, or are not naturally accepted by society as a whole, The court failed to consider the need to obtain an expert report or have the judge personally examine all the images on the DVD, CD, and hard drive seized during the search of the defendant's workplace, which were deemed to contain obscene content, in order to determine whether children were used in these materials, whether the content involved violence, sexual acts with animals, sexual acts on deceased human bodies, or unnatural acts, and to determine the defendant's legal status accordingly.<\/strong>...Since the decision is contrary to the law and the grounds for appeal of the defendant ... are found to be valid, in accordance with the request in the notification. THE VERDICT IS TO BE OVERTURNED<\/strong>...\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n


    SUPREME COURT<\/strong> 14th Criminal Chamber, Case No. 2015\/2271 E., Decision No. 2015\/9553 K.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201c"Regarding the appeal review of the conviction for violating the privacy of private life and the acquittal for obscenity against the defendant;
    The defendant's actions, namely engaging in consensual sexual intercourse with the underage victim, recording obscene images of this act on his own mobile phone with the victim's knowledge, transferring these images to a CD, and then allowing the underage witnesses D. and D. to view them, constitute separate offenses under Articles 236\/3-c-1 and 226\/5 of the Turkish Penal Code. Furthermore, these actions also constitute a violation of the privacy of the victim H. However, considering the principle of concurrent offenses as stipulated in Article 44 of the Turkish Penal Code, the defendant should have been punished according to the more severe Articles 226\/3-c-1 and 226\/5 of the same Code. Instead, the court erred in determining the nature of the offenses, convicting the defendant of violation of privacy and acquitting him of obscenity.,
    Since the appeals filed by the participating lawyer and the Public Prosecutor of that locality are deemed justified due to the illegality of the case, the judgment is reversed in accordance with Article 321 of the Code of Criminal Procedure No. 1412, taking into consideration Article 8\/1 of Law No. 5320. TO DETERIORATE<\/strong>, The decision was made unanimously on October 20, 2015.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    SUPREME COURT<\/strong><\/strong> 18. CRIMINAL DIVISION<\/strong>\u00a02017\/3354 E., 2019\/5468 K.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201c1- Given that some of the computers, hard disks, and CDs seized during the search of the defendant's home contained images of children being used, and others contained images of sexual intercourse with animals, the court failed to consider that the defendant's actions constituted the crime defined in Article 226\/3 of the Turkish Penal Code, which prescribes the most severe penalty according to the rules of concurrent offenses in Article 44 of the same Code, and instead issued separate judgments.\u201d,
    2- Considering the number and nature of the obscene content found on the computer, hard disks, and CDs seized from the defendant, it was not considered necessary to determine the basic sentence by deviating from the lower limit.,
    3- The possibility of applying the provision regarding the deprivation of rights stipulated in Article 53\/1-b of the Turkish Penal Code has been eliminated due to its annulment by the Constitutional Court's decision dated 08\/10\/2015, numbered 2014\/140 and 2015\/85.,
    The decision was made to overturn the previous ruling, and since the grounds for appeal of the defendant\u2026 were found to be valid, contrary to the request in the notification, ANNULMENT OF THE JUDGMENTS<\/strong>\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n
