Critics panned the performances, but....
Jeweler Uğur Şabanoğulları had debts he couldn't pay so he hired Halil
Alpsoy to "rob" him. But experienced policemen viewing the related
security footage discerned that the robbery was all for show.
Şabanoğulları (31) has a jewelry store in the Kanarya neighborhood of
Küçükçekmece, Istanbul. On 24 December, he called police to report
that his store had been robbed and explained that "when I opened my
store at eight-thirty in the morning, I lowered the shutter to my knees
but a masked thief slipped under it and into the store. He showed me
something in a black bag he was holding and ushered me to the counter,
where he stole the gold and fled."
However (!), the veteran policemen reviewing the store's camera
footage noticed that Şabanoğulları was quite calm during the "robbery"
and that the thief's behavior was unlike that of a real robber. Additionally,
police noticed that the gold stolen was in the store as "emanet" (left by
customers for safekeeping!), not Şabanoğulları's own store gold.
Alpsoy made this better-received picture under his
stage name.
Police determined that the "thief" was Halil Alpsoy (28) and he was
apprehended the day before yesterday. Faced with the policemens'
skepticism, Alpsoy confessed everything, saying that "Uğur
Şabanoğulları hired me to do the job and we made the plan together.
He was supposed to give me 40,000 TL (about $3,000) but he didn't."
Şabanoğulları was taken into custody. He had had the "stolen" gold
melted to pay off his debts. Both Şabanoğulları and Alpsoy were
taken to jail.
...both suspects will be let out to attend the ceremony.
