Authorities initially arrested four street vendors on the suspicion that their negligence in food preparation might be behind the poisoning. The investigation involved 11 people, including hotel staff. Prosecutors examined whether the pesticide used in the hotel room might have released a toxic gas into their room.

The investigation revealed that the pest control company the hotel had hired did not have an official certification for the role.

Another report said that two other tourists who were at the hotel were also taken to the hospital for treatment due to the alleged poisoning. Police have apparently taken their belongings for analysis.

The hotel was evacuated and sealed, with police collecting samples from the premises to build an examination.

The bodies of the family were handed to the forensic specialists to determine their cause of death. A toxicology report is still pending for the bodies as well as the hotel.

Cigdem’s father, Mustafa Celik revealed that the family was due to visit them after their few days of vacation in Istanbul. He has promised to file complaints against whoever is responsible for the deaths of his family and hopes for a heavy sentence to deter something like this in the future.

The case is still being investigated.

This is such a tragic event. We are sending our thoughts and prayers to the grieving family.
