The body of 54-year-old Serpil Girgin was found inside a sack in the Çarşı neighborhood of Denizli's Çivril district. It was revealed that the woman, whose body was discovered in a sack in her neighbors' garden 3 days after she went missing, was killed for 3 bracelets. The 2 women who committed the murder confessed during their police interrogation that they killed the woman after inviting her to their home, and that they performed a thorough cleaning of the house after leaving her in the sack in the backyard.
Her husband, Mustafa Girgin, filed a missing person report after he could not reach Girgin, who left her home on Sunday, January 26, saying, 'I am going to the neighbor's.'
Following Mustafa Girgin's statement and the missing person report, law enforcement launched a search operation in the neighborhood and its surroundings. Police teams examining the KGYS (City Security Management System) and security cameras in the neighborhood did not find any trace of Serpil Girgin.
Upon Mustafa Girgin's statement that his wife said she was going to her neighbors, police teams focused their search efforts on the street where the Girgin family's house is located.
HER BODY WAS FOUND IN THE GARDEN
Police found the lifeless body of the missing Serpil Girgin in the garden across from her house. The body, which was found inside a suspicious sack during the searches, was transported to the morgue for an autopsy after examinations by the prosecutor and crime scene investigation teams.
It was also learned that while Serpil Girgin was known to have 3 gold bracelets on her arm based on her husband's statements, no jewelry was found when her body was discovered. The landlord and her tenants living in the building where Serpil Girgin's lifeless body was found, 55-year-old Ümmühan A. and Türkan Ö., were taken into custody.
THEY CONFESSED TO THE MURDER DURING POLICE INTERROGATION
The suspects taken into custody, Ümmühan A. and Türkan Ö., confessed to the murder in their initial statements to the police. The two women, who were Serpil Girgin's neighbors across the street, stated in their interrogation that they invited their neighbor Serpil Girgin to their home, and after chatting for a while, they started a fight and killed her by hitting her on the head with a vacuum cleaner pipe.
It was learned that the two female murder suspects, who confessed to killing Serpil Girgin for the 3 gold bracelets on her arm, later performed a thorough cleaning of the house to destroy evidence and hid the victim in the house's garden. It was also learned that the murder suspects sold the bracelets they stole from the unfortunate woman's arm in the Kuyucak district of Aydın.
While the landlord who was taken into custody was released, murder suspects Ümmühan A. and Türkan Ö. were referred to the courthouse today following their procedures at the police station.
