The police arrested a 59-year-old man from Zevenaar on Thursday in connection with a 42-year-old woman who went missing there on December 29. The police also released the missing woman’s name - Yildiz Kayali.
On Thursday, the police suddenly launched an investigation at a Zevenaar home and released the woman’s picture, describing the case as “urgent.” The police did not say why the case became so time-sensitive seven weeks after Kayali’s disappearance but did say she might have fallen victim to a crime.
“The investigation in and around a home on Von Weberstraat in Zevenaar is still in full swing,” the police said. Officers were doing a trace evidence investigation and spoke to locals. The police also deployed special service dogs.
The arrested man is suspected of involvement in Kayali’s disappearance, the police said without revealing any details.
The police also released their statement in Turkish.
