In Istanbul, a company that sells crypto-money like Bitcoin, Etherium
and Ripple, filed a complaint with the prosecutor, saying that its
money had been stolen.  The cyber-security police squad determined
that two of the company's virtual money accounts had been hacked
and that 13 million TL (about $2.5 million) worth of Bitcoin,
Etherium and Ripple had been transferred to another virtual account.

Police also figured out that the suspects had voice conversations over
the PUBG (Player Unknown Battlegrounds) game in order to avoid
capture.  In raids conducted in Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Bursa,
Afyonkarahisar, Edirne, Bolu and Antalya, 24 individuals were
arrested and virtual money worth between 54,000 TL and 1.2 million
TL was seized.

Six of the suspects were jailed, 7 were released under jucidial control
and 9 were forbidden to leave the country.  In statements to police,
the crime scenario was outlined as follows: E.D., a friend of the older
brother of Nihat K, who works at the company from which the money
was stolen, lost a lot of money in a pyramid scheme.  E.D. got in
touch with Nihat K. and proposed the crypto-money heist.  Nihat K.,
who has authority over the company's accounts, agreed to the plan.

So the crypto-money, hacked with Nihat K.'s help, was transferred
to an account in Ukraine.  However, the gang fingered itself in the
process of breaking up 1 million TL worth of crypt-money. 

Among the suspect rounded up, there was one individual, in
particular, who caught the attention of police: H.Ö.D., an
academician who gives seminars to judges and prosecutors in
Istanbul about computer networks law (!).  H.Ö.D. was one of the
7 suspects released under judicial control by the court.

jumpsuit."
