Greek authorities informed INTERPOL on December 17 that a male body had been discovered off the coast of Samos Island.
Following this, a photograph of Yasin Cinkaya was shared with officials in Samos, and initial assessments suggest that the body may belong to Cinkaya.
It has been learned that Yavuz Cinkaya, the brother of Yasin Cinkaya, from whom a DNA sample was taken at the İzmir Forensic Medicine Institute, will travel from Kuşadası to Samos on Monday to identify the body.
The boat belonging to Denizli businessman Yasin Cinkaya was found by fishermen near Eşek Island on the morning of December 14.
Upon being notified, Coast Guard teams went to the area and towed the boat, which contained Cinkaya's personal belongings such as his phone and wallet, to the shore.
Search efforts had been initiated for Cinkaya, who reportedly set sail from the Didim district on December 13 and was last heard from by his relatives via phone around 19:00 on the same evening.
