Tl;dr: It’s hiding a lot of men pushing women out of heights.

They didn’t accept a proposal from some douche and he threw her of the roof also rape is possible and choose to end it, since they won’t get properly investigated the culprit will be at large as long as he’s allowed…

Rapid deceleration damage is a great way to hide forensic evidence.

Nah, these aren’t assassinations, just plain domestic murders.

When local media released security camera footage of the couple fighting on a dark street outside it – Şebnem in a summer dress, squaring her shoulders at Bayhan – Sığın’s suspicions grew. She spoke with waiters in a nearby fish restaurant, who recalled the pair angrily leaving what was meant to be a romantic dinner there.

Sığın also got access to the police records, including a video they took inside the hotel room the morning after Şebnem’s death. This appears to show evidence of a clash: large spots of blood on the floor and a torn dark green-painted fingernail tangled in the bedsheet.

Summary: Turkish police investigate so superficially that it would permit men to push women out of windows without getting charged.

The prosecutor assigned to the case told İbrahim he was so confident Aysun had jumped 17 metres (56 feet) from her office window to her death that they would release her body for burial only if he signed a document attesting she had taken her own life. Hüsniye begged her husband not to sign and eventually a workaround was found. “The prosecutor wouldn’t say why he thought it was a suicide,” İbrahim says. “He was supposed to go to the scene, but he didn’t.”

Summary: Turkish prosecutors sometimes refuse to review evidence and pressure people to sign statements which ease their work.
