STATEMENT FROM PINAR ŞENTÜRK
After the incident spread on social media, Semih Şentürk’s wife Pınar Şentürk made a statement.
“The bad incident we experienced in Barcelona at noon today is true. Let it come to our own good rather than to our lives. After the shock and sadness we experienced at the moment of the incident, thankfully, my beloved husband Semih Şentürk was not harmed. However, after the incident, a news headline was published just as the plane was taking off, distracting us from the incident.” It was even more upsetting. The headline was: ‘Semih Şentürk was attacked in Barcelona.’ If you only knew the anxiety experienced by our families, our loved ones and most importantly our three daughters, who could not reach us because we got on the plane after a news made for the sake of clicks, you would never even think of making such a news just for the sake of clicks. he wouldn’t come. Fortunately, Semih and I are very well. We are safely at home. “We would like to thank everyone who called, asked and messaged.”
