The lawyer representing the family of Rojin Kabaiş has formally requested that Turkish authorities detain two individuals and collect their DNA samples in connection with her disappearance.
Abdurrahman Karabulut, the family’s attorney, filed a petition with the Van Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office on Wednesday. The request targets a person identified only as M.Ç., as well as M.N.K., who allegedly had contact with M.Ç. after the incident.
Karabulut is asking for arrest warrants and DNA testing for both individuals as part of the ongoing investigation.
The move comes as part of the family’s continued efforts to uncover what happened to Kabaiş on the day she went missing. No further details about the suspects or the evidence against them have been released at this time.
The prosecutor’s office has not yet announced a decision on the request.
