The Horrific Incident in Fatih Aksaray
The incident occurred in Fatih Aksaray last August. While Zulfira Amanova was seeing off a customer who wanted to see the products she was selling online, she was suddenly confronted by suspects wearing police vests entering the house. The suspects barged in without giving any explanation and tied the hands and arms of Amanova and her son. Amanova, who was experiencing moments of fear, could not understand what was happening at the time.
The suspects then went to the room where the jewelry was located and filled the bag with jewelry worth approximately $150. However, one of them noticed the security cameras and immediately tried to break them. After this frightening robbery that lasted about 15 minutes, the suspects threw their police vests off the balcony and escaped from the house. Amanova’s son managed to untie the ropes with his own means and immediately reported the situation to the police.
Teams are examining security camera footage and are continuing their efforts to catch the suspects.
Zulfira Amanova’s Fears
Zulfira Amanova made the following statements about the incident she experienced: “While we were seeing the customer off at the door, thieves wearing police vests entered. First, they put a gun to my forehead and covered my son’s and my mouths. This place was always full before, but now, as you can see, it is completely empty. Before I could ask anything, they covered my mouth and took our belongings. When I saw the vest, I thought they were police, but then I realized that real police officers don’t normally act like this. Our loss is around 150 thousand dollars. A month has passed since the incident, but even though the men’s faces are clear, they still haven’t been caught. I don’t know how I will get along with two children. I am really scared. I am even scared to send my two children to school. Their schools are close, but I still have a fear inside me. I want them to be caught as soon as possible.”
