An interesting incident that occurred on a public transport vehicle in the Sultangazi district of Istanbul caused a reaction from the citizens. According to claims, a person who alleged that he had an epileptic seizure on the bus he boarded tried to attract the attention of the passengers. However, it quickly became clear that the situation was not a real illness, but a "trick" performed for the purpose of begging.
THEY THREW HIM OFF THE BUS AFTER REALIZING HE WAS LYING
During the incident, some passengers tried to help the person, thinking he was genuinely unwell. However, shortly after, other passengers who became suspicious of his movements realized that he was faking the seizure. Upon this, the passengers collectively removed the person from the bus.
HE CONTINUED TO ACT AS IF HE WAS "HAVING A SEIZURE"
The events were captured second by second by the cellphone camera of one of the passengers on the bus. In the footage, the person was seen lying on the ground by the sidewalk, while another person nearby was trying to help him by holding his arm.
