The claim
Ibrahim Hajiyar, father of two Easter Sunday suicide bombers, has been acquitted and released in the main Easter Sunday attacks case.
Original review summary
Ibrahim Hajiyar was not a defendant in the main Easter Sunday attacks case decided on September 22, 2026, so he was neither convicted nor acquitted in that case. The review says he remains on bail and that a separate case against him is still being heard.[S1]
Additional context
He was released on bail on May 25, 2022. In October 2023, the court changed his reporting requirement to once every three months. [S1]
