Lung cancer prisoners had his sentence postponed

Nurettin Dayan has stage 4 lung cancer. He is in prison in Batman, and finally had his sentence postponed for 6 months.

Nurettin Dayan (34) has stage 4 lung cancer and is being held in the Beşiri T Type Closed Prison in Batman (Êlih). His sentence was postponed after a report stating that he "cannot stay in prison" was issued.

Dayan’s lawyers applied to the Batman Execution Judgeship for a postponement of the sentence, and requested a report from the Health Board at the Dicle University Faculty of Medicine regarding Dayan's condition.

The report stated that he "cannot stay in prison". The report was then sent to the Istanbul Forensic Medicine Institute (ATK), which confirmed the incompatibility with prison and stated that the sentence should be postponed for 6 months.

The Batman Execution Judgeship, in accordance with the ATK report, decided to postpone Dayan's sentence for 6 months.
