Reina’s bloody attack on a nightclub on New Year’s Eve 2017 comes to light again … Verdict is delivered against the perpetrator!

The file of the attack on the cabaret “Reina” of Turkey on New Year’s Eve 2017 came to an end, which is the criminal attack that killed a large number of people, including Lebanese.

On Monday, a Turkish court sentenced Uzbeki Din to 40 life sentences for carrying out an attack that killed 39 people in an Istanbul nightclub on New Year’s Eve 2017.

Abdelkader Masharipov, whose trial began in late 2017, was sentenced to 40 life sentences, one for each victim, including 27 foreigners, and one for the entire massacre for which ISIS claimed responsibility, according to the Anatolia news agency.

The attack on the “Reina” nightclub on the Bosphorus left 80 injured.

Masharipov, who was arrested 15 days after carrying out the attack, admitted that he had done so. However, he retracted his confessions during one of his trial sessions in February 2019, noting that he was not the perpetrator and not “the person carrying a Kalashnikov weapon” who was seen during the attack.

Reina’s attack was the first in Turkey for which ISIS claimed responsibility directly, knowing that Ankara attributed other attacks to the extremist organization.

In May 2017, part of the club was dismissed by order of the Istanbul municipality, for violating urban planning regulations without reopening its doors.
