This gorgeous model has claimed that her pal hit her and her toddler daughter during a boozy girls’ night in.

Gizem Kocak, 26, winner of Miss & Mr Model of Turkey 2012, went to a female friend’s house in the district of Maslak in the north-western Turkish province of Istanbul with her 18-month-old daughter on 18th May last year.

During the evening, Gizem and her friend, identified as Aysegul K., started to argue while drinking alcohol and their harsh words promptly turned into flying fists.

The model claims her friend hit her toddler daughter during the brawl, and that Aysegul refused to let them leave afterwards, instead keeping them locked in the home.

Gizem, who was able to leave the property after Aysegul’s boyfriend Omer arrived home, went to the police station and filed a complaint against her pal.

Almost a year later, the police have confirmed that an investigation into the incident was launched recently.

According to local media, Aysegul left a statement with the police that confirmed an argument took place in her home with Gizem but denied the allegation of assault.

She is quoted as saying: “We were drinking together and later we started to argue. At one point, she really p*ssed me off. She made a mess of my flat and started damaging my belongings. I’m really the victim here.”

It is unclear what took the authorities so long to start the investigation. The police probe continues.
