The case, stemming from a Facebook post alleged to have defamed the Security Forces Command (GKK), saw Lieutenant Colonel Cengiz Doğan testify as a witness. Doğan, who served as the director of the military officers' mess at the White House in 2020, claimed in court that the post undermined the reputation and moral standing of the GKK, one of the "most valuable and trustworthy institutions."

Ahead of the hearing, a large group gathered outside Nicosia District Court to show support for Kişmir.
