There is no such distinction as “disgraceful crimes” in the Turkish Criminal Code. The concept of disgraceful crimes that do not have any consequences in terms of the Criminal Code is mentioned in special laws, regulations and statutes. This concept has been abandoned due to the fact that it is a controversial situation in the legal community. Although it is obvious that the adjective ”disgraceful” is one of the types of crimes that affect the moral values of society, it is observed that child sexual abuse, sexual harassment, sexual intercourse with a minor and similar crimes that affect the conscience of society even more deeply are not considered in this context. For this reason, the concept of disgraceful crimes, which are not included in these crimes that shake the moral values of society, has not been accepted by legal circles on the grounds that it has no concrete basis.
Since disgraceful crimes prevent the rights and status that people can obtain under special laws, and crimes also have consequences other than their punishment, tracking them through a criminal lawyer will prevent significant rights losses from occurring.
Disgraceful crimes are counted in the Civil Servants Law 48, and regardless of the amount and execution of the crimes specified in the article, it is only called being convicted of that crime. If a crime constitutes an obstacle to civil service by virtue of its nature, the amount of the relevant penalty does not matter whether the option is translated into sanctions or not. The important thing is whether that crime is an obstacle to civil service, that is, the Law on Civil Servants 48. matter is also counted.
