Turkey Authorities eventually issued an international arrest warrant with more than $2 billion of funds stuck in the crypto exchange Thodex.
The former CEO of Thodex was caught in Albania on August 30, 2022. However, his lawyers appealed against the continued detention of Ozer on September 14, 2022.
