The case was reported to the Public Prosecutor's Office through a report made by the Child and Youth Protection Commission. After the investigation, charges were filed against the young man for aggravated rape crimes.
The suspect was placed in preventive detention as a precautionary measure. The decision was made by the Criminal Instruction Court after the defendant's presentation.
