The Turkish actress Ece Írtem had traveled to Thailand days before her death, where a monkey bit her, so her lawyer asked that a possible relationship between the two events be investigated.
Ece Írtem, known for her participation in the series Original sin (2018), Sandik Kokusu (2023), Yeni Gelin (2017) and Bay Yanlis (2020), among others, died on June 15 due to a heart attack.
The actress was born on June 14, 1991 in Sivas, Türkiye, and died in Istanbul on June 15. A day before he had turned 34 years old.
Írtem began her acting career in 2014 and quickly became known by participating in several Turkish series. In Türkiye, his best-known role was in the series Opposite worlds (2022).
Before turning to acting, he studied at the Department of Opera and Vocal Arts at Yasar University and worked with several personalities in the world of lyrical music.
According to the newspaper The Countrythe actress died while she was with her mother and, according to the first evaluations, she suffered a heart attack, reported her legal representative, Ugur Gokkoyun.
The actress had recently traveled to Thailand, according to posts she shared on Instagram.
The lawyer’s hypothesis is that during that trip he suffered a monkey bite, which is why he asked the authorities to investigate the case, according to a Univision publication. He indicated that three marks were identified on the left arm.
Gokkoyun mentioned the risk of these types of injuries, since, according to experts, monkey bites can have fatal consequences, including sepsis, a life-threatening condition caused by the body’s extreme response to an infection.
The actress had been feeling sick to her stomach days before she died, but did not want to go to the doctor, according to several local media.
