"THIS MONEY IS MY 3-MONTH SCHOLARSHIP"

Eyüp T. stated that he is a student and supports himself, saying, "Actually, I have a license, but I haven't obtained a document from the Population Directorate. That's why I got fined. I am a student, my financial situation is very limited. 11 thousand lira is my 3-month scholarship. I don't get much support from my family, I make a living by working. If you ask me about my feelings right now, I have no feelings left, I have lost my emotions. I am thinking about how to pay this debt," he said.
