Shocking details in courthouse robbery: The November 13 detail

New details have emerged regarding the robbery that took place at the Büyükçekmece Courthouse evidence office. Office employee Erdal Timurtaş, who stole 25 kg of gold and 50 kg of silver worth 147 million TL, fled abroad with his wife Esma Timurtaş, while office supervisor Kemal Demir was taken into custody and arrested. A red notice has been issued for the Timurtaş couple. Striking details about how the robbery was planned continue to emerge throughout the judicial investigation.

THE PLAN THAT LED TO THE SELECTION OF NOVEMBER 13

It is alleged that November 13, the date the robbery was carried out, was chosen deliberately. It is claimed that Erdal Timurtaş chose this day because the next routine inspection was to be held on January 15, and security camera recordings would be deleted by that date.

However, another even more striking claim was that Timurtaş specifically chose the date of November 13. It is stated that the robber thought that day was a time when courthouse security was high due to it being the day of weapons delivery to the Ministry of National Defense. It is suggested that he aimed to mask the robbery by using this intensity.

THE FUGITIVE COUPLE FLEES ABROAD

Erdal Timurtaş, who carried out the robbery, covered his tracks after the heist and fled to England with his wife Esma Timurtaş. An international red notice has been issued for the couple. On the other hand, it is stated that security forces continue to track the fugitive couple.

OFFICE SUPERVISOR ARRESTED

Following the robbery, evidence office supervisor Kemal Demir was arrested and sent to prison. While the investigation into whether Demir was involved in the robbery continues, it is stated that the suspect exhibited some suspicious behavior before the robbery.

It is stated that the robbery was carefully planned before it took place and every step was meticulously calculated. It is understood that the valuables in the courthouse's evidence office are subject to inspections at certain intervals, and therefore the robbers aimed to time it correctly by taking this period into account. It is alleged that Erdal Timurtaş acted knowing that security camera recordings would be deleted before the inspection.
