With deep sadness, anger and many questions, Turkey said the last "goodbye" at the funeral of 8-year-old Narin, who was found dead yesterday, Sunday, after 19 days of investigations during which her fate was unknown.
Little Narin Guran went missing on August 21 in the Baglar district of Diyarbakir, Southeast Turkey, and was found dead yesterday at 8:45 a.m. at the edge of a stream in a sack, wearing the clothes she was wearing when she was last seen before she disappeared, covered with stones and branches.
The Sabah newspaper reports the first confession in connection with the crime, noting that a person arrested as part of the investigations confessed that the village headman and the girl's uncle handed him the little girl's body in a sack and he took it to stream.
The girl's uncle was the first person to be arrested as a suspect in Narin's disappearance, and according to Turkish media reports, he had differences with the girl's father and brother and, according to the same sources, had threatened them in the past .
After the discovery of the body of 8-year-old Narine, the police proceeded to arrest a total of 24 people, including the mother, father, two siblings, four uncles and the wife of the uncle who was initially arrested.
Late last night, the autopsy and necropsy of the victim, which lasted over 11 hours, was completed in Diyarbakir, where it was found that there was a fracture at the level of the knee in the left lower limb of the girl, which was sent to Istanbul for further investigation with more specialized analyses.
In the case, which is the dominant topic in the last few days in Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan intervened with his post on the X platform. "The sad news about Narin, who was brutally murdered, hurt us all deeply. I will personally monitor the judicial process to guarantee that those who took Narin from us will receive the severest punishment they deserve," the Turkish president wrote.
