"HIS MOTHER WAS WORKING, THEY TOLD HER LATER"
9-month-old Miran was buried wrapped in his blanket at Konacık Cemetery. Bilgin, who poured water while praying at his nephew's grave, expressed his pain with the following words:
"I was in Alanya at that time, I was working. I came immediately when I heard the news. They had gone to a relative's wedding, and this accident happened on their way back. The driver was under the influence of alcohol. I was very fond of my nephew Miran. I was shocked when I heard the news. The baby's mother was working at a hotel, and they informed her later. He was taken to the hospital by ambulance, and his heart stopped twice. Despite all the interventions, he could not be saved. My brother's foot was broken, and my mother's feet have bruises. We buried my nephew Miran with his blanket. The driver was arrested and sent to prison."
