Turkish star Sevil Akdag stabs friend 30 times while intoxicated

Renowned Turkish actress Sevil Akdag recently made headlines after stabbing her friend Elif Kırav 30 times while intoxicated.
29-year-old Elif Kırav was found dead inside her home in Istanbul, and after a careful investigation by Turkish authorities, Sevil Akdag was ruled out as the suspect behind the incident and was arrested in the Esenyurt district.
Additionally, the police received a report from a nearby neighbor who claimed to have heard screams coming from inside Elif’s apartment. They told the police, “I was trying to go back to sleep when I heard the sound of hurried footsteps on the building’s stairs.”
They added, “When I looked through the peephole, I saw a person dressed in black running away. Later, Elif’s mother called her daughter but received no answer, so I went up to the apartment and found the door open. Upon entering, I saw Elif seriously injured, so I immediately notified the police.”
