Ümit Özdağ continues to be an important figure in Turkey's agenda. The Özlem Eryakşi case is drawing significant attention.

On November 25, 2022, Özlem Eryakşi, a mother of two, was shot by Cemal Kusuvoğlu, with whom she was preparing to marry. Following the incident, Kusuvoğlu was arrested and sentenced to life imprisonment.

During the trial, the reduction of the sentence to 24 years due to provocation sparked a major debate in society. Özdağ stated that he would continue to follow such cases closely.

The retrial of the case is seen as an important step in the pursuit of justice. Özdağ consistently expresses his stance against femicides.

In this process, the sensitivity of society towards women's rights has increased. Özdağ emphasized that he will continue to support the fight on this issue.
