Thodex Founder Sentenced to Over 11,000 Years in Prison đŸ€Ż

#Thodex founder, Faruk Fatih Özer, who fled Turkey in 2021, has been sentenced to an astonishing 11,196 years in #prison , alongside his siblings, for alleged involvement in an organization, fraud, and money laundering.

The once-prominent Turkish crypto exchange #collapsed suddenly in 2021, leaving $2 billion in users’ assets missing.

Özer, initially detained in Albania in 2022, was extradited to Turkey in April 2023. He maintains his innocence, claiming bankruptcy rather than criminal intent.

The complex case involved 21 defendants, with varying sentences, raising questions about the fairness of Özer’s punishment.
