CALLS FOR PRECAUTIONS REMAIN UNANSWERED
In the Marmaray, where suicide cases occur frequently, a person who jumped onto the tracks as the train was approaching last August was saved at the last moment.
Authorities are being criticized for not taking any precautions at the stations despite all the suicide cases and calls.
