Her loved ones in the front row of the court were also seen sobbing Herald Sun reported.
Caliskan had difficulty hearing the details of the case as they were read out due to problems with her hearing aids.
Her lawyer asked a nurse to help her. She claimed that her client’s hearing aids had run out of battery and she could not hear what was being said.
The court heard it was the first time Caliskan had been arrested.
She has not filed an application for bail. Caliskan was taken into custody.
She will appear in court again in December.
