Gönyeli police investigate suspected narcotics in vehicle

An investigation is ongoing in Gönyeli following the discovery of a stationary vehicle during a police patrol on August 22, 2026. Police found two residents of Güzelyurt, identified as E. D. and Y. D., inside the vehicle. One of the suspects, Y. D., was found unconscious.

During the search, officers seized a piece of paper suspected of containing narcotics and two cigarette butts believed to be mixed with tobacco and drugs. While a subsequent court-ordered search of the suspects' residence in Güzelyurt yielded no illegal items, the seized substances have been sent to the State Chemistry Laboratory for analysis.

Following a court appearance where blood samples were submitted for testing, the court has granted police an additional two days to continue the investigation.
