The lifeless body of security officer Mustafa Uçar, who left home two days ago saying "I am going hunting" and was not heard from again, has been found. Uçar, who was discovered leaning against a tree in the Soğuksu area, had been shot with a rifle. His death has caused great sorrow in the district, while security forces have launched a wide-ranging investigation to determine whether the incident was a suicide or a murder.

Mustafa Uçar, a security guard living in the Alaplı district of Zonguldak, left his home two days ago with his hunting rifle. Following a report made by his family after not hearing from Uçar for two days, teams launched a large-scale search operation in the forested area and its surroundings. On the second day of the search, Uçar's lifeless body was found in a wooded area in the Soğuksu locality.

FOUND SHOT WITH A HUNTING RIFLE

Initial examinations at the scene revealed that Mustafa Uçar had been shot with a hunting rifle and was found leaning against a tree. Although the initial findings strengthened the possibility that the unfortunate man may have taken his own life with his own weapon, a meticulous evidence collection process was carried out at the scene.

THE AUTOPSY WILL REVEAL THE FINAL WORD

Uçar's body was taken to the hospital morgue after the prosecutor's examination to determine the exact cause of death. Whether this tragic death was a suicide or a murder involving third parties will become clear after the detailed autopsy results are obtained.
