She'll be safer in jail.
Yasemin Gündoğan robbed more than 8 million Euros from the company
she worked for in Bremen, Germany, in 2021 and fled to Turkey. Now,
though, she has surrendered to police at Bremen airport, but the question
remains: why now?
Speculation is rife about Yasemin hanım's surprise decision to turn herself
in but it may be that she felt threatened. Right after her heist, Professor
Adolf Gallwitz, a psychologist working in the Villingen-Schwenningen
police department, told Bild newspaper "this great amount of money
would draw the attention of many criminals, who would be inclined to
track her down anywhere in the world. She would be vulnerable to
blackmail and possibly kidnapping."
German Criminologist Axel Petermann opined that "there are many
reasons that a person might surrender after committing a crime like
this. She might have spent all the money or criminal pursuers may have
found out where she was hiding and were closing in on her. Another
possible reason for surrendering could be a crisis of conscience about
having committed the crime and the related regret. And constantly
living on the run is extremely stressful."
From Bremen to Berlin to Vienna overland, by plane to Istanbul
and Izmir. Then perhaps to Bilecik, where a German insurance
company filed a complaint with the Turkish prosecutor,
alleging that Yasemin hanım was in the market for a plot
of land there.
