Russian woman says 5-year-old daughter kidnapped by Turkish husband

Russian Victoria Sinan through social networks reported the disappearance of his young daughter, which the husband-foreigner secretly left in Turkey.

A resident of Chelyabinsk has already filed an application with law enforcement agencies, but expresses serious concerns about the effectiveness of the search, since she herself gave written or oral consent to the temporary departure of the child outside the Russian Federation.

From the public appeal of the victim, it is known that in 2020 she gave birth to a daughter married to a Turkish citizen named Saigyn. Until the beginning of 2026, the family lived in the capital, but in January the woman was forced to take the child and go to her mother in Chelyabinsk. Victoria explained her decision by protracted family quarrels and manifestations of domestic violence by her husband.

Being in the process of dissolution of the marriage, the Chelyabinsk did not prevent the father from seeing the girl in Moscow and Chelyabinsk. In October, her husband persuaded her to let her go to a family event and a football match in Istanbul, pledging to return the child to a fixed date.

The father and daughter left Russia on October 29 and were supposed to return on November 3, but at first the man postponed the flight under the pretext of extending the guest visit, and on November 6 completely blocked contacts, previously telling his wife by phone that the girl would remain in Turkey for good and would not return to her homeland.

To date, Victoria has no contact with her daughter and is unaware of her actual whereabouts.

The Russian Embassy urged the Russians in Turkey to be careful because of bad weather.
