Statement from RTÜK President Şahin regarding Narin Güran

RTÜK President Ebubekir Şahin announced that the media's sharing of unverified information and reporting of every various claim regarding the disappearance of 8-year-old Narin Güran in Diyarbakır damages the sensitivity of an incident where a child is the subject.

In this process, restraint is essential for the investigation to proceed healthily and for necessary interventions to be carried out effectively.
