I suppose fatigue played a major role in that crash. The same crew was coming from MAN with a stop in Trabzon; so arriving in ISB they were exhausted; not a good start for an IMC approach, with terrain around: so:
- fatigue
- IMC / rain showers
- high ground

all well known causal / circumstantial factors for a CFIT.
