The Constitutional Court dismissed the appeal filed by Sinasi Oeztop against the Audiencia Nacional's order for her extradition to Germany. She argued that the lack of a defense lawyer violated her right to a fair trial under Article 24 of the Constitution. The Court held that while the right to defense is fundamental, it does not prevent the state from fulfilling its international obligations to extradite a fugitive.
