Crime Update: Court sentence cult leader, Adnan Oktar to 1,075 years in prison



On Monday a Turkish Court sentenced Adnan Oktar, a cult leader, to 1,075 years in prison for sexual crimes. 

Oktar is the head of cult prosecutors consider a criminal organization.

During national raids in 2018, the 64-year-old and thousands of his followers were arrested. 

His preaching was controversial, though he called women "kittens" in the TV studio.

NTV reported that Oktar was found guilty of sexual assault, sexual abuse of minors, fraud and attempted political and military espionage.

The convict told the judge in December that he had close to 1,000 girlfriends.

“I am extraordinarily potent”, Oktar boasted at a hearing.

In October, he said: “There is an overflowing of love in my heart for women. Love is a human quality. It is a quality of a Muslim.”
