During the argument at Marmaray in Maltepe, E.D. (50) was arrested for assaulting D.E. (46) in front of his two children. E.D.'s statement given to the prosecutor has emerged.
THEY BEAT HIM IN FRONT OF HIS CHILDREN
The incident occurred yesterday around 16:45 at Marmaray Süreyyapaşa Station. According to the information obtained, a dispute arose between D.E., who was traveling with his two children, and a female passenger over a seating issue. During the argument, E.D. (50), who was on the Marmaray, assaulted D.E. in front of his children. The scuffle escalated with the intervention of I.A., who joined the fight later. The assaulted person's nose was broken. As the train approached the station, the parties involved continued the argument here. The frightened children were calmed down by the female passengers at the station. After the incident, the two suspects were referred to the courthouse.
"I SAW THE GIRL CRYING"
The suspect E.D. stated in his testimony to the prosecutor: "I boarded the Marmaray train from Yenikapı station. When I arrived at Bostancı station, the complainant boarded the train. At that moment, he started to insult a girl aged 18-20 who was standing at the door. I initially did not get involved, but when the train approached my stop, Küçükyalı station, I saw the complainant shouting and the girl he insulted crying.
"A VERBAL ARGUMENT STARTED BETWEEN US"
In response, I turned to the complainant and said, 'Did you do this? You broke a young girl's heart; what was the need for such remarks? Was it nice?' The complainant replied, 'He deserves it; I did less than he deserved.' He said to me, 'Who are you? Don't interfere; I can say what I want and do what I want.' I tried to explain that people stand at every door and that the girl was not at fault. A verbal argument started between us. We arrived at the station.
"I HIT HIM OUT OF EXCITEMENT"
At that moment, a young friend in a blue shirt inside the train started to shout at the complainant in the same way and began to attack him. I had been intubated about 1.5 years ago due to a lung collapse. Therefore, I started to have difficulty breathing. In my excitement, I suddenly hit the complainant. After that, I got off the train because I had arrived at my stop. I regret the incident. I have no criminal record until today. It happened in a moment of excitement. I only hit the person once."
"I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER HITTING"
In the suspect's interrogation by the judge, he said, "I am very sorry, I regret it a lot. I have lung insufficiency. I don't even remember hitting due to the effects of the atmosphere. The other person continued the fight after me. I have no criminal record. I do not accept the charges against me. I request to be tried without detention; if the court disagrees, I request the application of judicial control measures."
HE WAS ARRESTED
The suspect E.D. was arrested by the on-duty magistrate after his statement to the judge.
