A woman of Syrian origin allegedly ran away with her wedding jewelry just a day after getting married with a Turkish man in the city of Denizli, the West.
The woman, known as “Fatma," vanished with all the money and jewelry she had received for her wedding the morning after the ceremony, reports said.
She reportedly disappeared along with two of her relatives. The money and wedding gifts were valued at TL 20,000, according to the reports.
The groom, identified as Rıza T., made a criminal complaint in Serinhisar prosecution office on charges of fraud. Police have investigated the incident.
A total of eight suspects, together with the Syrian woman, have been detained in connection with the fraud claims. The investigation is still underway.
The 37-year-old man is believed to be the second person who was cheated by the same woman. In another case, she is said to have obtained money by tricking a man she married in the central Anatolian city of Konya.
