Dispute in the divorce of the Sabanci couple from Turkey persists due to a reported claim of $120 million.
In a significant matter that has captured the attention of Turkish society and business circles, Ali Sabanci and Vuslat Dogan Sabanci, a prominent Turkish couple, are currently going through a divorce. The divorce settlement dispute, which involves financial compensation, has been ongoing since the boating accident near the Greek island of Leros in August 2023.
The boating accident is a significant event in the ongoing dispute, as it is believed to have contributed to the tension and negotiation difficulties in the settlement discussions. Vuslat Dogan Sabanci sustained injuries in the accident that required multiple surgeries in the United States. Individuals close to the family attribute the influence on the divorce negotiations to Vuslat Dogan Sabanci's belief that Ali Sabanci is responsible for the boating accident.
Vuslat Dogan Sabanci is seeking ₺5 billion ($120.84 million) as part of the divorce settlement. This represents about one-eighth of Ali Sabanci's fortune, which is estimated to be $960 million. The family of Ali Sabanci, however, views the compensation demanded by Vuslat Dogan Sabanci as excessive and is opposed to the high financial claims.
Despite the ongoing dispute, the couple has been living separately since the boating accident, but their marriage remains legally intact. The exact amount of financial compensation Ali Sabanci will be required to pay Vuslat Dogan Sabanci has not been finalized. The unresolved financial compensation issue is delaying the formal conclusion of the divorce.
The divorce settlement dispute has reportedly added to the existing tension in the couple's relationship. The boating accident is not yet finalized as part of the divorce settlement, and its resolution may impact the overall outcome of the proceedings.
Ali Sabanci, among the wealthiest individuals in Turkey, and Vuslat Dogan Sabanci are known for their significant contributions to the Turkish business world. The ongoing divorce and its settlement dispute have raised questions and concerns about the future of their businesses and the impact on the Turkish economy.
As the negotiations continue, both parties are expected to seek a fair and equitable resolution to the dispute. The outcome of the divorce settlement will undoubtedly have far-reaching implications for the couple, their families, and the broader Turkish society.
