Özet:

 The Turkish Penal Code TPC, under Article 265 of Law No. 5237, defines the crime that punishes the use of force or threats that prevent public servants from performing their duties. This crime can occur through the use of physical force force against a public servant or by threatening to harm the servant or their relatives threat, thereby instilling fear. Although the former TPC No. 765 regulates this offence, only prevention of duty is punishable under Law No. 5237. With TPC No. 5237, passive acts of resistance are no longer considered a crime. The base penalty for the offence is imprisonment from six months to three years, with increased penalties for certain circumstances, which are the qualified form of the crime. The victims of the crime are the public servants and the public administration, and anyone can be the perpetrator. Qualified forms of the crime include committing the crime against judicial officers, through disguise or by multiple individuals, being committed with weapons, or taking advantage of criminal organizations scariness. Special appearance forms of the crime include attempts and participation, and provisions on concurrence can also apply. The widespread occurrence of threatening statements aimed at preventing a public servant from carrying out their duties, together with the different rulings of the Court of Cassation on such statements, highlight the relevance and timeliness of this issue in criminal law.

 Türk Ceza Kanununun TCK 5237 sayılı yasasının 265. maddesi, kamu görevlisinin görevini yapmasını engellemek amacıyla cebir veya tehdit kullanılmasını cezalandırmaktadır. Bu suç, kamu görevlisine karşı fiziksel güç kullanılması cebir veya ona veya yakınlarına zarar verme tehdidi ile korkutma tehdit şeklinde gerçekleşebilir. 765 sayılı eski TCKda düzenlemesi bulunmakla birlikte, 5237 sayılı yasada sadece görevin engellenmesi cezalandırılmaktadır. 5237 sayılı TCK ile pasif direnme fiilleri artık suç olarak kabul edilmemektedir. Suçun temel cezası altı aydan üç yıla kadar hapis cezasıdır ve nitelikli hallerde ceza artırımı öngörülmüştür. Suçun mağduru kamu görevlisi ve kamu idaresidir, fail ise herkes olabilir. Nitelikli haller, yargı görevi yapanlara karşı işlenmesi, tanınmayacak hale gelerek veya birden fazla kişi tarafından işlenmesi, silahla veya suç örgütlerinin korkutuculuğundan yararlanarak işlenmesi şeklinde düzenlenmiştir. Görevi yaptırmamak için direnme suçuna teşebbüs ve iştirak mümkündür, içtima hükümleri de uygulanabilir. Kamu görevlisinin görevini yapmasını engellemeye yönelik tehdit söylemlerinin yaygınlığı ve benzer söylemlere ilişkin Yargıtayın farklı yöndeki kararları çalışma konusunun ceza hukukundaki güncelliğinin önemli göstergelerindendir.
