Fahrettin Cevheroğlu, the İYİ Party District Chairman for Kızıltepe, has been detained following an alleged assault on his son-in-law, Muhammed Nakşioğlu. 

The incident reportedly occurred on August 13 in the Turgut Özal neighborhood of Kızıltepe, Mardin. According to reports and security camera footage, a group of approximately 20 people, including Cevheroğlu and his relatives, entered Nakşioğlu’s courtyard by jumping over a metal gate. 

Nakşioğlu filed a criminal complaint after being beaten by the group, stating that Cevheroğlu had previously made verbal threats and insults against him and his family. Medical reports indicate that Nakşioğlu sustained injuries requiring more than simple medical intervention, including wounds to his abdomen. Police have launched an investigation, and Cevheroğlu remains in custody.
