The pair were taking a photo with the century-old Varda Viaduct in the background, which features in the opening chase scene of 2012 hit Skyfall. Hatice reportedly lost her footing, and Mazlum tried to grab hold of her. But the two ended up plunging 164ft – 50 metres – into the void. Emergency services raced to the scene and workers used a crane to winch the cousins to safety. Sadly, Hatice was pronounced dead at the scene while her cousin was rushed to hospital. Hatice had only recently started a new job as a chef in a local restaurant when she fell to her death at around 5.30pm on October 11.
