Supreme Court Panel assigned to deal with SPO/Defence requests re. Mustafa’s new sentence
On 10 and 11 December 2024, respectively, KSC President Trendafilova assigned Supreme Court Panels to review requests for protection of legality filed by Salih Mustafa and the SPO.
The same panel, consisting of Judges Ekaterina Trendafilova (Presiding), Christine van den Wyngaert, and Daniel Fransen, will decide on these requests, both of which challenge the Court of Appeals' decision from 10 September of this year that imposed a new 15-year prison sentence on Mustafa.
