In Fatih, an investigation is ongoing regarding the chilling incident where many body parts of a male were found wrapped in black bags in the house of police officer Semih Gülmüş.

IT HAS BEEN DETERMINED THAT THE POLICE COMMITTED SUICIDE

The incident occurred on June 14 at 19:25 on Kariye İmarathanesi Street in Ayvansaray Neighborhood, where colleagues of police officer Semih Gülmüş (33), who did not go to work, went to his home after not hearing from him. After the door was opened with the help of a locksmith, Gülmüş was found motionless. Upon notification, crime scene investigation teams and medical teams were dispatched to the scene, and it was determined that the police had shot himself in the head and died.

A DISMEMBERED BODY WAS FOUND IN THE BEDROOM

During the search, a dismembered male body without a head was found wrapped in black bags under the bed in the bedroom, and severed fingers were seen under the counter in the kitchen. While it was claimed that the head of the body could not be found, the body parts of the police officer were taken to the morgue of the Forensic Medicine Institution. The identity of the body was determined from fingerprints.

THE IDENTITY OF THE BODY WAS REVEALED FROM FINGERPRINTS

It was determined who the dismembered body belonged to from the fingerprints. The body was identified as belonging to Hüseyin Gülsüm (33), a father of three who had a criminal record and divorced his wife three years ago. Additionally, it was claimed in the investigation that police officer Semih Gülmüş had asked the neighborhood grocery store for a black garbage bag a few days prior.

"AS FAR AS I KNOW, HE WAS A GOOD PERSON"

While the investigation into the incident continues, Ayfer Kızıl, the owner of the grocery store in the neighborhood, said, "Since we are a grocery store here, we know the neighbors. As far as I know, he was a good person. Everyone was satisfied with him; we did not see any problems. He used to come and go to the grocery store. That's all I know. I never noticed him asking for a black bag. Someone else might come and ask for a black bag; I can't know what he wanted or what I wanted."

STARTED DUTY IN 2017

It was reported that Semih G., who allegedly committed suicide by shooting himself with a gun, started his duty in 2017 at the Fatih Patrol Teams Directorate, was assigned to the Fatih Crime Scene Investigation Group Directorate in 2018, and had been serving at the Fener Greek Patriarchate under the Fatih Protection Bureau Directorate since 2023.
