Turkish media report that media mogul Fatih Olfaz has allegedly fled to Spain to escape imprisonment in Turkey.

The Oflaz Media Group owner has been sentenced to 22 years and six months in jail for sexually abusing his daughter by a recent court order. The Istanbul 17th Heavy Penalty Court found Oflaz guilty of sexually abusing his biological daughter for about seven years, daily Habertürk reported on July 19. As Oflaz does not have a previous criminal record, the Istanbul court reduced the sentence to 18 years and nine months in jail, following a two-year-long trial process.

Oflaz group is the sole shareholder of the digital TV platform Filbox, which is best known with SinemaTV movie channels. Also on the platform’s channel list are Eurosport, Discovery Channel, and Animal Planet.

Oflaz’s 26-year-old daughter, whose name is disclosed, reportedly told the court she had been exposed to ongoing sexual abuse by her father from the ages of seven-and-a-half to 15.

“My father was always a tyrannical man. Everything he said had to be done … After my father and mother were separated, I had to go to my father’s house by my mother’s force. I did not raise my voice against this for years. I usually acted as if nothing had happened. I hated my father and my mother for sending me to my father’s house, my brother who did not stop this, and myself for not resisting this,” the young woman, currently a sculptor, reportedly told the court.

“At last, I decided to talk about the situation and face the truth and filed a complaint. This complaint nor the result of this trial will change what I have been through. My live has been ruined. I cannot have a healthy relationship with anyone, at any level. I cannot stop hating myself. I hate my mother and father, and this makes me a lonely person without a family in this world,” the victim was quoted as saying in the court by daily Habertürk.

The sexual abuse came to light when the young woman initially told her grandmother about the incident. She later spoke of it to her mother and started psychological therapy in 2013.

The woman’s psychiatrist, Turgut Kundakçı, was reportedly also called to the court for a testimony and called Oflaz’s case “pedophilia.”
