In the Efeler district of Aydın, when a 1.5-year-old girl under the care of a babysitter had a crying fit in her sleep, her family decided to install a camera in their home. On the very first day the camera was installed, it captured footage of the babysitter abusing the little girl. The babysitter, H.K., was taken into custody following the family's complaint.
O.Ö.K and M.K., a couple living in Adnan Menderes Neighborhood, placed an advertisement 4 months ago to find a caregiver for their one-and-a-half-year-old daughter R.K. The caregiver H.K., who applied in response to the advertisement, started taking care of the child. After a while, the family noticed aggressive behavior in their child, crying fits that lasted until the early morning, and bruises on various parts of her body, so they installed a security camera in the house.
VIOLENCE ON THE FIRST DAY THE CAMERAS WERE INSTALLED
On the first day the camera was installed, it was revealed that the caregiver was abusing the child. The security footage showed moments of verbal and physical abuse by the caregiver towards the one-and-a-half-year-old child. After watching the footage, the family went to the police and filed a complaint against the caregiver. Following the examination of the security camera recordings, the caregiver H.K. was detained by the police.
"SHE STARTS CRYING FITS AT NIGHT"
The father O.Ö.K. spoke about the incident, saying, "Our daughter is one and a half years old. H.K. started taking care of our child 4 months ago. The child began to exhibit aggressive behavior and started having crying fits at night. When we saw the crying fits that lasted until the early morning and the bruises on various parts of her body, we installed a camera in the house. On the first day we installed the camera, we watched these images. We immediately went to the police with the footage and filed a complaint against the caregiver. The caregiver was detained," he said.
