The Turkish government submitted their defence regarding the killing of 12-year-old Uğur Kantar and his father to the European Court of Human Rights. It was claimed that "proportional force" was used and that the policemen "had no other option".

The case about the killing of Ahmet Kaymaz and his twelve year old son Uğur Kaymaz has been waiting at the Supreme Court of Appeals for twenty months. The lawyer of the family says the culture of no-punishment dominates the human rights violations.
