The pair chose the beauty spot as they wanted to celebrate their engagement.

The man reportedly went back to the car to get a picnic, but said that he suddenly heard a scream.

He rushed back, only to find that his new fiancee had tumbled off the cliff.

The woman initially survived the 104ft plunge on the evening of July 6.

But after 45 minutes of resuscitation efforts, medics declared her dead.

Gursu told local media: “We chose it to have a romantic memory after the proposal. We drank some alcohol.

“Everything happened at once. She lost her balance and fell down.”

The authorities immediately closed off the area and opened an investigation, according to reports, with access to the cliff only being allowed again “in a controlled manner.”

One of Demir’s friends told local media: “This is a place where everyone comes and watches the sunset.

“However, the roads are very bad and there is no precaution on the edge of the cliff.

“A fence should be drawn here, precautions should be taken.”
