The images of 14-year-old Burak Koçak, who left home three days ago to go to school and has not been heard from since, have emerged. The footage captured by security cameras shows Koçak walking alone in the neighborhood.
Burak Koçak (14), an 8th-grade student living in the Altıntaş neighborhood of Orhaneli, left home on the morning of June 5 to go to school. When his family learned that Koçak, who attends Hacı Mustafa Öden Imam Hatip Middle School, did not take the service that departs from the neighborhood square and did not go to school, they searched the area for their son, who had not returned home by the evening.
BURAK IS BEING SEARCHED EVERYWHERE
The searching family found Koçak's school bag in the shed of Altıntaş Primary School and reported the situation to the district gendarmerie command. Teams that started working to find Burak, who has been missing for 2 days, scrutinized the security cameras in the neighborhood.
LAST IMAGES HAVE EMERGED
In the camera recordings, Burak Koçak was seen walking in the neighborhood streets in the morning hours, and then he disappeared from sight for a while. No suspicious person or incident was encountered in the footage, while investigations are ongoing.
Search efforts are still intensively continuing in forested and mountainous areas. A search and rescue team consisting of 94 personnel from AFAD, JAK, Gendarmerie Public Order, UMKE, MAG-AME, ANDA, KUMDAK, and MAGDER, along with 4 search dogs, 4 drones, and 16 vehicles, is looking for traces of Burak Koçak.
