A Glasgow business onwer says his family back home in Turkey have been living out of a car after his hometown was destroyed by the recent earthquake. Mehmet Sunna, 44, says Pazarcik in southern Turkey has been reduced to rubble following the natural disaster which has killed thousands of people.
Speaking to Glasgow Live, he explained that he remains in disbelief after seeing pictures of the remains of the town he grew up in. Mehmet was working on Monday when the tragedy unfolded and when he checked his phione he noticed he had over 200 missed calls from family - it was then he knew something truly awful must have happened.
He said "I decided to sleep in my office because I was setting up my showroom. I lay down on the couch and after I got up and checked my phone I had over 200 missed calls. One of my friends' cousins in Glasgow phoned me in a panic. I asked him if he was ok, he said 'yes, but our hometown is not ok'. I asked what he meant and he said there was no home left.
