The incident occurred two days ago at a veterinary clinic owned by Ceren Eroğlu in Çankaya district. A.K. brought her cat named 'Victoria,' who had an early birth and caught an infection, to the veterinary clinic.

She first slapped, then hit. After being treated at the clinic, the cat passed away four days later. A.K. blamed the clinic for her cat's death and together with her four friends, she attacked the veterinarian Ceren Eroğlu.

A.K. slapped Eroğlu, pulled her hair, and hit her on the head. She also caused a disturbance by scattering items in the clinic and had to be calmed down by the staff.

The incident was captured on security cameras. In the footage, A.K. can be seen slapping and attacking Eroğlu, as well as causing chaos and scattering items.

While assaulting Eroğlu, A.K. can be heard making threats, saying, "I will disgrace you. I will choke you. Just wait, I'll do even more to you. Here's your clinic for you." Following Eroğlu's complaint, A.K. was taken to the police station but was later released after giving her statement.
