A Turkish man was arrested on Feb. 13 for attempting to rape a Belarussian woman on a ferry. 

The 20-year-old Belarussian woman who lives in the western Turkish province of Tekirdağ went to the neighboring province of Çanakkale with two of her neighbors with their car.

When returning back onboard a ferry, the woman alerted one of her friends by calling on the phone, telling her that the two men tried to rape her.

The police who waited on the port halted the car and detained both men.

One of the two men, identified as Selçuk Yılmaz, was arrested by the court for attempted rape, while the other, identified only as İ.E, was released on judicial control, pending trial.
