Found his father in the garbage house

Four years ago, photographer Mehmet Kapılı, living in Belediye Evleri Mahallesi in Çukurova district, was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. His son Özgür Kapılı, a father of four, went to work as a seasonal laborer in Bodrum, Muğla, six months ago. Allegedly, S.K., Mehmet Kapılı's spouse, showed no interest in taking care of him. Due to his busy work schedule, Özgür Kapılı couldn't come to Adana, but he regularly communicated with his mother and received positive updates about his father's health.

Over time, S.K. gradually stopped caring for her bedridden husband and eventually left the house. During this period, the house turned into a cluttered and neglected state. Concerned neighbors, who are the couple's sons living abroad, called Özgür Kapılı and said, "Your mother is not taking care of your father. Your father is in very bad condition, and there is a terrible smell coming from your house."
