BREAKING NEWS: Narin Güran Found Safe, Not Dead
Turkey has been anxiously awaiting news about missing Narin Güran since August 21st. A massive search effort was launched after Güran disappeared, with developments in the case capturing the attention of the entire region.
The incident took place in the rural Tavşantepe neighborhood of Bağlar district on the afternoon of August 21st. Güran, who was attending a Quran course, did not return home, prompting her family to launch a search. When their efforts proved fruitless, Güran’s father Arif Güran reported his daughter missing to the gendarmerie station around 8:00 p.m. on the same day.
Various law enforcement agencies, including Gendarmerie Special Operations teams, Crime Investigation Teams, Intelligence Branch Directorate, Dog Tracking Team, and Underwater Search and Rescue Team, were deployed to the region. Helicopters from the gendarmerie and the Provincial Police Department provided air support, while approximately 150 vehicles that were on the road during Güran’s disappearance were questioned. Over 12,550 vehicles have been searched so far, with statements taken from 130 individuals and searches conducted in an area of over 11 thousand acres with tracking dogs.
During the search, a child’s slipper was found on the side of the road on the night of August 22nd, about 3 kilometers from the Güran family’s home. While initially believed to belong to Narin, further examination revealed it was not the case. Additionally, last images of Narin before her disappearance showed her with friends walking towards her home.
The investigation into Narin Güran’s disappearance is ongoing, with her older brother EG (18) detained as a suspect. He was sent to the Istanbul Forensic Medicine Institute to determine whether a bite mark on his arm belonged to Narin.
The question still remains: is Narin Güran alive or dead? While her fate is still unknown, recent statements suggest that evidence has been collected, bringing authorities closer to a resolution. It is hoped that information regarding Narin’s condition will be shared soon.
