The public prosecutor appealed the acquittal, just one day after the decision given by Istanbul 12th High Criminal Court. And on January 24, 2013, the court ordered a lifetime sentence on Pınar Selek.

Also, in September 2004, the Supreme Court ruled against publicizing complainants' identities in sex offences, following the conclusive acquittal of the accused (C.A.A 5877 99 Haim Yanos v. The State of Israel (28.09.04)).
