Originally on duty at the Şırnak City Police Department Fatih Dalgıç, who was in İstanbul on July 15, went to the Çengelköy Sabancı Police Department to support and help his colleagues. The 26-year-old resigned police officer Fatih Dalgıç tried to take cover behind a dumpster against the gunfire of the traitors, but was martyred on the spot.
As a fatherless child raised by his uncle Captain Savaş Dalgıç, Fatih Dalgıç, who wanted to become a physical therapy and rehabilitation specialist, was buried in his hometown of Eskişehir.
“Long live the nation”
His uncle Savaş Dalgıç, who told about Martyr Dalgıç, stated, “He got prepared for matriculation this year. ‘If I get accepted, will you educate me?’ he asked me. And I said, ‘Yes.’ He scored 410 in the first exam. I said, ‘Get prepared for the second exam, become a doctor.’ He asked for unpaid time off. But he resigned, when his petition wasn’t accepted. Meanwhile, he was living in İstanbul with his friends, when the incidents occurred. When his friends wanted to help, Fatih joined them without blinking an eye. Fatih was martyred upon the conflict. He didn’t hold himself back for his country. Long live the nation.”
