The one I know of, there weren't security bars.  But they ignored (or didn't spot) the Burglar Alarm.  I hope they catch the rotters soon.  Be nice if they got a pummelling.

it was the same last year - as soon as the holiday makers arrived and people were in residence with open windows etc.  Seems they like easy pickings ie: jewellery, cameras etc that are left around.  Just because Uzumlu is a sleep little place doesn't mean you can drop your guard.  Be careful peeps xx

hopefully we will be spared. We leave two large dogbowls on the veranda and the dogs loose in the house at night! Thanks for the warning though.

It happened to us 2 years ago 3 weeks after moving in and we had a dog !
Be aware as you are not settled and organised and dogs do not put them off all the time.
They seem to pick on new comers and tourists but hopefully the increased Jandarma patrols are helping to deter them.
Apart from that we hope you are settling in well.

Are all these break ins after arriving by a transfer company? Are the transfer people giving out the information about new arrivals I wonder?

It may well be a factor.
We stayed in Dominican Republic a few years ago & everyone that went out on organised trips from the holiday company had their safe boxes opened & emptied.It turned out the rep had a master key for rooms & safes & gave out details of who was out on daily trips to an accomplace.

[  I have two dogs and full security bars but still got burgled. Be nice if someone was actually caught. Percentage wise, Uzumlu must be the crime capital of Mugla. Come on Jandarm,s, must try harder./quote]

They caught the ones that did our house and 4 others 2 years ago, :Dput them in jail and then released them before the trail :o. At the trail we were asked if we wanted to press charges, said yes of course and the judges siad well when we catch them again we will take it to trail.[:(!]
Needless to say have heard nothing in the 2 years since...
