"Expect a surprise ha ha ha!...I'm sending photos by courier

to your house!"

A married businessman decided to part from his Kyrgyz girlfriend and

blocked her from all of his internet links.  However (!), the young woman

continually sent 1 TL to the businessman's IBAN address of his bank

account and included threats in the "explanation" section. 

According to the investigation file about the matter, businessman İsa B.

began a two-year affair with Kyrgyzstan native Dılıara T., who had lived 

in Turkey for 10 years.  When the young woman became pregnant last

May, İsa B. wanted her the have an abortion.  The couple argued and,

ultimately, Dılıara hanım had a miscarriage.  

Afterwards, İsa B. cut off Dılıara hanım from all access to his internet

accounts but she counterattacked by continually sending 1 TL (less than 

1 US cent) to his bank account and included threats in the explanation 

section. (!)  İsa B. sent messages back to Dılıara hanım in this same 

channel.  Finally, on 15 August İsa B. filed a complaint against Dılıara 

hanım, asserting that she threatened to send his family photos from their 

time together.

İsa B. explained that "when her blackmail against me was unsuccessful,

she wrote to my older brother İbrahim B., demanding 138,000 TL

(about $5,000) and he succumbed to her demand in order to protect me." 

The Istanbul public prosecutor began an investigation concerning Dılıara

hanım for the crimes of "blackmail, threats and insults".  Based on these

charges, she was deported to Kyrgyzstan.
