The victim posted the video on social media 'Reddit' and asked netizens for advice.
The video showed an ice cream salesman putting an ice cream cone inside a female tourist's shirt.
When the surprised victim stepped back, the salesman continued to sexually harass by rubbing ice cream on his face.
The video ends with a salesman holding a woman's hand and encouraging her to eat ice cream.
In the post, the victim said, "I was angry at myself for not being able to say anything while being sexually harassed in an instant.""It was shameful, insulting, angry, and sad. I want to make him take responsibility" he said. She reportedly reported the incident to local police.
The next day, Mayor Inan Guinei of Beyoglu District posted a video on his X (formerly Twitter) account of police confiscating equipment from the ice cream shop in question, saying, `The store has been closed, the salesman has been arrested.' He said "Beyoglu is a safe distance for all women to walk, and we will do our best to protect it."."
Meanwhile, Turkiye's traditional ice cream, 'Marash Dondurma', is famous for its unique texture and performance.
It has a high viscosity, a chewy texture, and a hard molecular structure that does not dissolve well, keeping its shape for a long time.
In particular, it is fun for tourists with a playful performance that the seller pretends to give ice cream and takes away.
