00:05No, one of the sections that we investigated was 365 if the media noticed,

00:13which is the abduction, right?

00:15The escape of people.

00:16Because there was not a single thing that was asked for.

00:19That's number one.

00:20Number two, the arrest was made again

00:24Because of the investigation results, we have found several sex toys equipment

00:32that justified the investigation under Section 10 to be continued.

00:37Riman has been granted up to 10 days for further investigation.

01:40Given that the case is now aimed at sexual offences and sexual abuse,

01:53As far as I know, after the victim was found,

01:56the victim was sent back and the thorough examination was done by an expert.

02:02And it was confirmed by the expert doctor.

02:07So for now, I don't see any reason to send him for another medical check-up.
