Hayri Kozakçıoğlu's last day was described by his daughter.

Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Specialist Prof. Dr. Meral Kozakçıoğlu Özekici was a guest of Gökay Kalaycıoğlu, the host of the "Haber Bahane" program published on Haberler.com. Özekici made emotionally charged statements regarding the death of her father, former State of Emergency (OHAL) Regional and Istanbul Governor Hayri Kozakçıoğlu, at his home in Sarıyer.

"WE MADE PLANS AND THE NEXT MORNING MY FATHER WAS NO LONGER ALIVE"

Meral Kozakçıoğlu Özekici, who stated that she always felt her father's presence, recounted their meeting the day before his death with the following words:

"We had already met the day before the incident; he had come to the clinic. We were thinking about opening a workplace for occupational health. Then we went to look at a place in Levent. We thought about how to divide it and to talk to an architect. I parted ways with my father that afternoon. I said, 'Dad, let's meet tomorrow morning.' My father replied, 'Let's meet tomorrow morning.' There is an occupational health center in Reşitpaşa that my father knows. He said, 'I will go there and check the architecture tomorrow morning. Then we can go together.' We made plans, and the next morning my father was no longer alive."

"WHEN I WAS A CHILD, MY BIGGEST FEAR WAS MY FATHER'S DEATH"

Özekici, who expressed that her biggest fear as a child was her father's death, said, "When I was a child, my biggest fear was my father's death, and my father did not die when I was a child. I spent a lot of time with my father. This is a consolation point for me."

WHAT HAD HAPPENED?

Hayri Kozakçıoğlu was found dead at his home by his wife Sabire Kozakçıoğlu on the morning of May 23, 2013. A licensed firearm was found near his body.
