In Adana, a man identified as Azim G. carried out a bold theft that involved 33 brand-new iPhones. The motive, as reported, was to sell the devices later and use the proceeds to satisfy a personal wish, specifically to buy a car for his girlfriend. The details came from reports cited by GizmoChina.
Azim G. worked as a courier. On a routine delivery run, he received a job to move a box containing smartphones to a busy shopping mall. Along the route, temptation overtook him. He chose to steal the entire shipment of iPhones and attempt to liquidate them for quick cash. The moment he walked away with the package, the plan shifted from an ordinary delivery to a high-risk crime.
Within days, most of the smartphones were sold, generating a sizable amount of money estimated around 30,000 dollars. The funds were then used to purchase a new car for his girlfriend, a purchase that would later draw scrutiny from authorities. The car, as well as the remaining iPhones, would become central pieces in the ensuing investigation.
Authorities were alerted when the transportation company that employed the thief reported the loss to the police. Law enforcement officers acted swiftly and located Azim G. after an efficient inquiry. A search of his residence uncovered five unpackaged iPhones, tying him more directly to the crime. The young man’s partner asserted that she did not know where the money for the car had come from, adding another layer of complexity to the case.
As proceedings continued, the state took possession of the unsold iPhones and the vehicle, seizing them as part of the investigation. In the aftermath, authorities and observers noted how a single act of theft could ripple into significant financial and social consequences. The case painted a vivid picture of how quickly illicit gains can dissolve under scrutiny, and how personal relationships can become a focal point in the search for accountability.
In related remarks, Dmitry Peskov once described the iPhone as a remarkable invention, a sentiment that underscores both the value people place on smartphones and the potential for their exploitation in criminal activity. (GizmoChina)
