The Russian phenomenon was said to have died due to a faulty overtaking, but the truth was different.

In the Milas district of Muğla, regarding the accident in which 38-year-old Tatiana Ozolina, a Russian social media influencer, lost her life, the forensic medicine institution's report stated that Ozolina was 'not at fault', while the other driver, Onur Obut, was 'primarily at fault'.

Russian citizen and motorcycle enthusiast internet phenomenon Tatiana Ozolina entered Turkey as part of her world tour. During the tour, Tatiana Ozolina was accompanied by Onur Obut and Sergei Khadrikov. Among the three motorcyclists heading towards Milas, Sergei Khadrikov allegedly fell behind. Consequently, Obut and Ozolina slowed down to wait for their other friends to catch up. During this time, an accident occurred between the motorcycle driven by Tatiana Ozolina and the motorcycle driven by Onur Obut.

"TATİANA SAID SHE HIT ME"

Onur Obut, who completed his treatment at the hospital, was detained by the police. In his statement, Obut said, "I have known Tatiana Ozolina and Sergei Khardikov from social media for a long time. I invited them to tour Turkey. Our trip started in Istanbul. When we entered the district borders of Milas, I slowed down to wait for Sergei, who was behind. At that moment, Tatiana, who was coming from behind, hit me and was thrown off." After his procedures at the police station, Obut was referred to the courthouse and released under judicial control. A report was prepared by the forensic medicine institution based on the security camera footage and witness statements. The report stated that Ozolina braked due to a truck that appeared in front of her while she was in motion, and that Obut, who did not maintain a safe following distance, crashed into Ozolina's motorcycle from behind, indicating that Ozolina was not at fault in the accident, while Obut was primarily at fault.

THE CAMERA THAT RECORDED THE INCIDENT DISAPPEARED

Ali Şan, the lawyer for Tatiana Ozolina's family, stated that the camera on Ozolina's motorcycle, which was claimed to be recording at the time of the incident, went missing after the accident. He reported that a driver who stopped for the accident said he gave the camera to Obut, and requested anyone who saw the camera to come forward and give a statement to the prosecutor's office.

Lawyer Ali Şan stated that the investigation regarding the accident is being conducted very meticulously by the prosecutor's office, saying, "We lost Tatiana Ozolina due to a tragic accident. We are only waiting for the report regarding the cause of death. All evidence has been collected in the case. However, the camera footage is missing. After the accident, a citizen stated that he gave the camera on Tatiana's motorcycle to another driver because the gendarmerie was not present at that time. This driver claims that he was not given any camera." Şan mentioned that they expect the indictment to be prepared shortly, stating, "In the accident report taken by the prosecutor's office, it is established that Tatiana was not at fault, and the suspect was at fault. Many eyewitnesses have given their statements. If anyone witnessed the accident, please come forward and give your statements to the prosecutor's office. Tatiana Ozolina's family is upset because the suspect has not contacted them."
