Faruk Fatih Özer, former CEO of the crypto exchange Thodex, was found dead in his cell in Tekirdağ. Turkish authorities are conducting an investigation and currently favor the hypothesis of suicide. Thodex collapsed in 2021 after the withdrawal freeze, before Özer's flight and then his extradition in 2022. In 2023, he was sentenced to a cumulative 11,196 years for fraud and related offenses.
