Family's call for justice on the first anniversary of the suspicious death in Kastamonu

One year has passed since the death of 36-year-old Elif Özkan, who was found dead in her home in the Hanönü district of Kastamonu on 15 July 2025. While uncertainties regarding the young woman's death remain unresolved, her family states that the incident is suspicious and demands a renewed and detailed investigation.

The family's suspicions and claims had previously been brought to light on a television program. During the broadcast conducted by the program team who came to the region, claims were raised that there was an argument between her father-in-law and her father before Özkan's death. Her relatives expect the process to be re-evaluated in all its aspects and the question marks to be eliminated.

A poem written in her name on the anniversary of Elif Özkan's death added an emotional dimension to the family's expectation of justice. The poem emphasized the young woman's unfinished dreams and the demand for the case file to be re-examined. The family continues to struggle for the truth to come to light and for the process to be clarified.
