"YOU WILL BE IN PRISON, NOT IN TURKEY"
The moment the suspect, who was neutralized by the swift intervention of people around, was captured was reflected on citizens' mobile phone cameras. In the footage, neighborhood residents were seen reacting by saying, "You came to harm a child, tomorrow you will be in prison, not in Turkey."
