Peer bullying has taken on a new dimension. In the Meram district of Konya, a middle school girl experienced great fear when five girls, whose makeup she criticized at school, threatened her with a knife at her door. 12-year-old Z.D.K., who was home alone at the time, cannot forget the moments she experienced.
THEY THREATENED THEIR PEERS WITH A KNIFE AT THE DOOR
The incident occurred on October 2 in the Havzan neighborhood of Meram district. Z.D.K., who studies at Vali Necati Çetinkaya Middle School, was coming home with a friend after school. At that moment, five girls aged between 13 and 14, with whom she had a dispute over criticizing their makeup at school, came to the door and asked Z.D.K. to come outside. Noticing that one of them had a knife, Z.D.K. did not open the door. The five girls cursed and made gestures before leaving the apartment. Z.D.K. also tried to capture those moments with her cellphone camera and through the door's peephole. The moments when the five girls entered the apartment were also captured by security cameras.
THEY ALSO CORNERED A GROCER'S APPRENTICE
Meanwhile, moments when the girl students cornered a grocer's apprentice with a knife to learn Z.D.K.'s home address were also captured by security cameras.
"WE SEE THAT ONE OF THEM HAS A KNIFE"
Mesut Kızılok, expressing his concern for his daughter's life, said, "A group of five girls comes when my daughter is at home. There was no family member at home. We see that one of them has a knife. It is also reflected in the camera recordings. When they came to the house, they wanted to climb the window and were looking for an entry point. From what I understand, if they had entered the house, God forbid, there could have been unwanted consequences. This is an undesirable situation. I feel very sorry for those children as well. Those children are our future and they are very young. Unfortunately, I don't know where they get such influences, but if my daughter had opened the door, the consequences could have been dire," he said.
"MY CHILD'S PSYCHOLOGY HAS BEEN AFFECTED"
Mesut Kızılok stated, "We reported it to the police and a file was created. One of the unfortunate agendas in our country is peer bullying. There are cases that result in murder, and there are injured children. I do not want any of our children to be like this. The reasons for this should be investigated, and necessary measures should be taken by the relevant authorities. My child's psychology has been affected. I cannot send my child to school because I fear for her life. I know that her education will be interrupted due to the life-threatening risk. Because I cannot trust anyone," he said.
On the other hand, the investigation initiated following the family's complaint is ongoing.
