Istanbul Court Convicts Four Over Bedbug Insecticide Deaths of Tourist Family

An Istanbul court has convicted a hotel owner and three pest control workers following the fatal poisoning of a German-Turkish family. The victims were poisoned by lethal insecticides used to treat a reported bedbug infestation at a hotel in Istanbul.

The Çağlayan Court convicted the hotel owner, Hakan Oglak, along with three pest control operators, on charges of causing multiple deaths through negligence. The court handed down long prison sentences to the four individuals involved, concluding a high-profile trial surrounding safety violations in the hospitality and pest control sectors.
