Rap artist Sercan İpekçioğlu, known as Ezhel, has been sentenced to 1 year and 8 months in prison on charge of “drug use”. The prison sentence of İpekçioğlu has been deferred for 5 years.

Rapper Ezhel, who was arrested on May 23, has been acquitted at his first hearing.

Amnesty International has said that there is no material evidence to cause the arrest of rapper Ezhel, and demanded that Ezhel be immediately released without any reservation.

Rapper Ezhel has sent a letter from the prison where he is kept. Saying in his letter that he went to the police station on his own will to give deposition, Ezhel called on the person who filed the complaint against him, "What did I do to you".
