"WE TOOK CARE OF IT LIKE OUR OWN FUNERAL"
Ümit gave up on us and chose her. Then time passed, and he told us, 'I don't want Sema, I will break up with her.' Then he won my mother's heart. After that, Ümit went to my mother's house. We found out about the incident in the morning, and then we went to prison. We took care of it like our own funeral, but there was no pressure that the press did not put on us."
