The New Short Title: EGM Statement on Antalya Airport Incident
The General Directorate of Security has released a statement regarding an incident that occurred at Antalya Airport involving a man identified as Anton Paul. According to the statement, Paul, who is originally from Kazakhstan and also holds a German passport, caused trouble for security officers while passing through the X-Ray device at the airport’s 2nd International Terminal.
It was reported that Paul, who appeared to be intoxicated, left his suitcase in the X-ray machine and subsequently missed his 19:40 flight. He was also observed attempting to obtain free alcoholic drinks from a supermarket, causing a disturbance to those around him.
Police officers were called to the scene after reports of Paul causing a disturbance at the airport information and ticket sales office. They were able to remove him from the terminal building around 23:00, following repeated attempts by Paul to re-enter the building. The officers were forced to intervene and handcuff Paul, who was then taken to the hospital after medical teams were called to the scene.
Tragically, it was later confirmed that Paul had passed away. A judicial investigation has been initiated under the direction of the Public Prosecutor on Duty, with Civil and Police Chief Inspectors assigned to conduct an administrative review of the incident.
The circumstances surrounding Anton Paul’s death at Antalya Airport are currently under investigation, and further details may be revealed as the case unfolds.
