Ahmet Cenik was only five years old, and he was on his journey from Afyonkarahisar to Kahramanmaras to see his father, Fatih Cenik, who was an Administrative Judge and imprisoned in Kahramanmaras Prison.
The regime deliberately sends the Gulenists, or arrestees related to the 15 July coup, to further cities. For example, Afyonkarahisar to Kahramanmaras is almost 9 hours journey, 754 km away.
Young Ahmet lost his life in a traffic accident on the Goksu – Kahramanmaras road at around 06:30 in the morning. Ahmet Cenik, who died in the accident in which the other passengers in the vehicle were injured, was thus cut off from life before he could reunite with his father, yearning and longing.
