Nihat Aydemir, who stated that the idea of his daughter had been kidnapped is outweighing, called out the kidnappers to release his daughter. "I will not complain to anyone, just want my daughter back," said Aydemir.

"My daughter is alive"

Aydemir said, "My daughter has been kidnapped because we have not found her body so far. We would find her body if she was killed or dead. My child is alive, I believe that. I am calling to those who keep my daughter, for the sake of God, if you have a bit mercy and conscience, release my daughter to somewhere. I will definitely not be a complainer." (ILKHA)
