A 28-year-old woman was found shot dead inside an army camp in Assia in the north on Monday with police investigating the case as a possible crime.

According to corresponding media reports, the woman was found to have died from a gunshot wound. The main suspect is reportedly a Turkish military serviceman stationed in the north.

The initial suspicion of suicide has reportedly been met with scepticism, with organisations and legal experts in the north calling for a comprehensive investigation into the case to establish whether criminal activities or domestic violence were the cause.
