ENTERED THE ROOM SECRETLY
Kurtköy Neighborhood Headman Hüseyin Ekşi said, “A child of ours with Down syndrome goes to visit a neighbor with her grandmother. While the families were having a barbecue on the terrace, our girl with Down syndrome enters the room of our 40-day-old baby unnoticed. Because she is disabled, she throws the baby out the window without realizing it. As a neighborhood, we are very saddened by this tragic event. May God give patience to our family. The investigations by official authorities and the police are ongoing. I wish our neighborhood a speedy recovery.”
