A 65 percent disability occurred in his brain due to the substances he used. That's why he used heavy drugs and needles. On January 18, he went to the roof of our house due to the effects of the substances he used and the psychological disorder, and died by falling down. My child died at the age of 28. The only reason that my child has become into this situation is the drugs. I tried very hard to fix it, but I was not successful."
"HIS PSYCHOLOGY WAS VERY BAD"

They came across with her mother when she left the market. He said, "You go, I'm coming too." Then he came home nervously. He went upstairs saying something like "let me die, get rid of me". After 5-10 minutes, I heard my son shouting 'Call an ambulance'. My son was at the tip of the roof when I looked up. Before I could say 'Stop', my son's fall was one. He died here".
"HE COULD REACH THE DRUG ON THE STREET IMMEDIATELY"
