Yaşar Y. (73), who resides in the Gazipaşa neighborhood of the Seyhan district in Adana, received a phone call from a person who introduced himself as "Chief Inspector Kadir." The caller said, "It has been determined that your identities were used in a bank robbery. You need to hand over your money and gold at home to the police we will send you. We will return them to you after the investigation."

HANDED OVER HIS GOLD BY HAND

Upon this, Yaşar Y. and his wife Hanife Y. (72) gave 16 republic, 10 half, and 8 quarter gold coins to E.B. (16) and Halil T. (24) who came to their house. After a while, Yaşar Y. called the number that had called him, but he could not reach it. Realizing he had been scammed, Yaşar Y. went to the Provincial Police Department to file a complaint.

ONE CAUGHT IN THE MALL, THE OTHER AT HOME

Teams from the Fraud Bureau of the Public Order Branch started working to capture the suspects. The police examined the security camera footage in the area where the house is located and detained E.B. at his home in the İncirlik neighborhood of Yüreğir district. Halil T., who was not found at his address, was caught while shopping for clothes at a shopping center in the Seyhan district.

THEY WERE ARRESTED

The suspects taken to the police denied the charges against them. After their processing, Halil T. and E.B. were arrested by the court they were brought before. Meanwhile, the gold belonging to Yaşar Y. could not be found.
