A 19-year-old woman, Ceyda Evlekoğlu, who disappeared from her home in Soma, Manisa, has revealed she ran away to Adana to be with a man she met online.

Appearing on the television program "Müge Anlı ile Tatlı Sert," Ceyda confessed to leaving her family behind to join Ramazan, a 25-year-old she connected with on social media. Despite her family's pleas and her parents' emotional distress shown on camera, Ceyda remained adamant about her decision, stating she would marry Ramazan and refused to return home.

I shot down a bird, I will make her do everything within 2-3 months. I will bring her to a point where she cannot leave even if I tell her to.

However, the program received numerous anonymous calls from individuals claiming Ramazan has a dark past. Callers alleged that he is married with two children, involved in illegal drug trafficking, and has previously served time in prison for kidnapping a minor from Syria. These serious accusations were presented live on air.

Your father is falling to his knees, what is happening? What kind of spoiled behavior is this... You are going to a man who is married and has two children, what other spoiled behavior are you concerned with? If you were married, would you like it if your husband brought another woman home? Do you not think about these things said on the phone at all?

— Müge AnlıDirectly confronting Ceyda about her choices and the seriousness of the allegations.

One particularly disturbing anonymous tipster claimed Ramazan boasted about finding a new young woman, referring to her as a "bird he shot down." The caller alleged Ramazan stated he would manipulate her to the point where she would be unable to leave him, even if he wanted her to. Host Müge Anlı reacted with strong criticism to Ceyda's apparent disregard for the gravity of these allegations and her family's suffering, questioning her "spoiled" behavior and urging her to consider the implications of Ramazan's alleged actions.

Faced with the weight of the accusations and Anlı's stern warning, Ceyda broke down in tears. The program host insisted that Ramazan must appear on the show to address these serious claims. The incident has generated significant discussion on social media, with users expressing concern over Ceyda's vulnerability and the distress caused to her family.

He is married and has two children, is involved in illegal substance trafficking, and was previously imprisoned for kidnapping a minor Syrian girl.
