Former CEO Faruk Fatih <\/span>\u00d6zer <\/span>of the bankrupt Turkish crypto exchange Thodex has been given a record-breaking prison sentence for stealing $2 billion in customer funds.<\/span><\/p>\n

Crypto CEO Sentenced To 11,196 Years Prison Sentence<\/span><\/h2>\n

On Thursday, September 7, 2023, the former CEO of Thodex, which was one of the biggest cryptocurrency exchanges in Turkey, was reportedly sentenced to 11,196 years, 10 months, and 15 days in prison for several criminal charges including fraud, leading a criminal organization, and money laundering by the Anatolian 9th Heavy Penal Court.<\/span><\/p>\n

The former CEO reportedly defrauded over 400,000 Turkish customers of more than $2 billion in deposits when the exchange went offline in April 2021, and <\/span>\u00d6zer<\/span> fled the country immediately after the exchange went offline.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>prosecutors had initially requested a 40,562-year prison sentence<\/span><\/a> for the former crypto exchange CEO. However, the final verdict saw the sentence reduced to 11,196 years, the longest sentence so far for a crypto crime. Furthermore, a judicial fine of 135 million Liras was also imposed on the former CEO, according to <\/span>local media<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Faruk Fatih <\/span>\u00d6zer<\/span> was not the only one involved in the alleged crime. Following the investigation, 83 people were arrested and detained, and four other senior employees were jailed.<\/span><\/p>\n

When the case was thoroughly investigated, <\/span>\u00d6zer<\/span>‘s sister Serap <\/span>\u00d6zer,<\/span> and brother Guven <\/span>\u00d6zer,<\/span> were also found guilty of the same charges and were given the same prison sentence respectively.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although these jail terms may seem outrageous and unfamiliar to many, they are very common in Turkey due to the country\u2019s death sentence eradication since 2004. In 2022, TV cult preacher <\/span>Adnan Oktar<\/span><\/a> was convicted of fraud and sexual assault and was sentenced to 8,658 years in prison along with 10 of his followers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
