The European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) has rejected an application against Turkish authorities failure to conduct a proper investigation regarding the disappearance of Yusuf Bilge Tun, who went missing over a year ago and is feared to have been abducted by Turkish intelligence.

Tundisappearedin Ankara on August 6, 2019 in broad daylight, leaving no trace behind. His father Mustafa Tun earliersaidneither the police nor the prosecutor had cooperated with the family in finding their son.

Tuns car was found in a remote area 45 days after he vanished from Ankaras GMAT shopping mall. His family immediately called the police; yet the police showed no real interest in his disappearance. The police only conducted a crime scene investigation six months after we found the car and contacted them, said Mustafa Tun. We had already removed the car from where we found it, so the investigation was really a formality.

Although the family was afraid he had been abducted, the police dismissed their fears, saying: He might have fled and left his car behind. Take a look at the CCTV footage. He will return.

Tun worked in Turkeys Undersecretariat for the Defense Industry, the government agency responsible for defense procurement, and he was summarily fired with an executive decree after a July 15, 2016 coup attempt.
