Turkmen citizen K.H., who had been wanted for three years, voluntarily came to the police and was detained.

According to the police, the man was wanted in connection with a road traffic accident that occurred on 20 July 2023, as well as in a case involving illegal residence in Northern Cyprus.

In July 2023, K.H. illegally crossed the first-degree military restricted zone in the Akinchilar area, after which he left Northern Cyprus without permission and crossed to the south of the island.

On 10 July 2026, the man again violated the military restricted zone near Beyarmudu Primary School and returned to Northern Cyprus.

On 17 July 2026, K.H. came to the police voluntarily and was detained.

The court ordered that he be remanded in custody for three days to allow the investigation to be carried out. The police continue to work on the case.
