Explorer Kozinoğlu's conquest grave report strengthened the suspicion of assassination

The investigation initiated by the Silivri Chief Public Prosecutor's Office to determine the exact cause of Kozinoğlu's death and to determine whether third parties were involved in his death is continuing in many aspects.

As part of the investigation, the examinations carried out by the Forensic Medicine Institute on the samples taken by opening his grave in the past months have been completed.

The most important finding that attracted attention in the prepared laboratory and autopsy report was that while no toxic substances were found in the analyzes made in the grave soil, a high level of toxic substances were detected in Kozinoğlu's hair and nail samples. This detection strengthened the suspicions of an assassination that Kozinoğlu may have been poisoned to death.

The Forensic Medicine Institute Supreme Council report, which will include the final evaluation of the exact cause of death, is expected to be delivered to the prosecutor's office.

Within the scope of the investigation into Kozinoğlu's suspicious death, 9 suspects, including the then Silivri Chief Public Prosecutor Ali İşgören and prison prosecutor Necip Doğan, were arrested.

Explorer Kozinoğlu fell ill in Silivri No. 1 L Type Closed Prison on 12 November 2011 and died in the hospital where he was taken. In initial investigations, the cause of death was announced as a heart attack.
