KYK responds to 'elevator' allegations at student dormitory

It had been alleged that an elevator fell at the KYK-affiliated Gülpembe Hatun Girls' Dormitory in Giresun. Furthermore, it was observed that the dormitory management threatened students who were filming the incident.

The General Directorate of Credit and Dormitories (KYK) announced that the claim that an "elevator fell" at the Giresun Gülpembe Hatun Dormitory does not reflect the truth.

In a statement made from KYK's Twitter account, it was stated: "In the incident in question, the elevator serving in Block B of the Giresun Gülpembe Hatun Dormitory triggered a regulator fault while descending empty from the 3rd floor to the 2nd floor. Upon a group of students, who thought there were students inside and wanted to help, calling an ambulance and the fire department, teams arrived at the dormitory directorate."

The statement noted that no students were harmed during or after the incident.
