Hıncal Uluç (1 November 1939 – 20 November 2022)[1] was a Turkish journalist and writer.

In 1980, he moved to Istanbul after signing a contract with Gelişim Publishing's owner Ercan Arıklı for publishing a magazine. Later, in 1990 following Zafer Mutlu's suggestion he started writing for Sabah.[2]

He was shot in the heel after an armed attack in 1994.[3] In 2004, due to an article he wrote about Alaaddin Yüksel, the governor of Antalya, he was sentenced to one month in prison and paying 898 in 2008.[4] He continued to write for Sabah and appeared as a commentator on the news program 90.[5]

Following Defne Joy Foster's death, Uluç wrote an article about her neighbor's neglect under the title 'What kind of neighborhood is this?..'[6] for which a lawsuit was filed against him[7] and was eventually sentenced to paying compensation.[8]

In 1985, he wrote the lyrics for the song "Bir Küçük Aşk Masalı" together with Sezen Aksu. The song was performed as a duet by Aksu and Özdemir Erdoğan.[9]

On 20 November 2022, Uluç died in Istanbul.[1] On 22 November he was interred at Zincirlikuyu Cemetery.[10]
