a Turkish court ruled that her family should be paid 28,208 in pecuniary damages. In the media The incident, which occurred on 28 September, was not mentioned in the media in the early days by any platforms, except Taraf newspaper and CNN Türk. Ardından The editor-in-chief of Taraf, Ahmet Altan, published an article titled "Will you be silent?" and criticized the media and politicians who remained silent in the face of the incident: Following these remarks, in order to spread the news about the incident, Milliyet covered Ahmet Altan's article on its headline for 2 October. A group of women artists and activists filed a criminal complaint against the Lice prosecutor who did not go to the scene after the death of Önkol and did not initiate an investigation in time, and about the General Staff and the Ministry of Interior on the grounds that they had not made a satisfactory statement to the public. Conservative female journalists, including Lale Mansur, Eren Keskin, İlkay Akkaya, Roni Margulies, Cemile Bayraktar, Hidayet Şefkatli Tuksal, Hilal Kaplan, and Nihal Bengisu Karaca, all sent a letter to Prime Minister Erdoğan in their capacity as members of the activist group Buluşan Kadınlar and stated that as long as their forces were enough, they would continue to ask about Ceylan's death until they are enlightened. BirGün newspaper writer Enver Aysever criticized the liberals in an article for overreacting to the incident. His statements drew reactions from both his own newspaper and other people. Later Aysever left his position at BirGün. Nazan Öncel composed a song for Ceylan Önkol about a month after her death. Sezen Aksu prepared a lament for Ceylan Önkol which was first published in Yaşar Gaga's album Alakasız Şarkılar. Aksu performed the song "Ceylan" together with Tarkan. A park in Lice was named in her memory. But on the anniversary of her death in 2017, Sinan Başak, the trustee for Lice who re-emplaced the dismissed mayor Rezan Zuğurlu, changed the name of the park to Fırat Sımpil Park. In Kayapinar, there has also been named a park after Önkol.
