Maritime tragedy in Istanbul: Body of Makhfura Huseynova has been located

In Istanbul, the mysterious disappearance of Makhfura Huseynova, a 44-year-old Azerbaijani citizen, has ended in tragedy. The woman disappeared during a routine trip on the ferry line between Kadıköy and Beşiktaş, an event that caused a stir in the Turkish media due to its troubling circumstances.

According to a report by GündemX, following the start of extensive searches at sea once her disappearance became known, Huseynova's body was located off the coast of Haydarpaşa. Reports indicate that during the searches, the deceased's personal bag was found inside the ferry, which raised immediate questions regarding her fate.

Haber Gündem noted that the investigation into the incident reveals that Huseynova did indeed pass the entrance gates to the ferry line at Kadıköy port, but was not recorded as having disembarked from the ship at the destination station in Beşiktaş. Visual footage of the woman in her final moments before boarding the vessel was published by İhlas Haber Ajansı (IHA), a national news agency in Turkey, and was distributed by other media outlets as part of the efforts to understand the sequence of events.

The case, which was classified in the media as a "mysterious disappearance," was handled by local news channels such as TGRT HABER as a criminal or tragic event that requires an in-depth investigation in light of the fact that Huseynova disappeared during the voyage without leaving clear traces visible to the other passengers.
