The area is covered by the Jandarma NOT the Polis.

Jandarma 156
Fire Brigade 110
Forestry Fire 177
Central Ambulance Control 112

Alan, if you are using a UK mobile, would these numbers work without any prefix?

The polis cover what are (were) designated predominately urban areas, the Jandarma rural areas. However as settlements grow then its not always the case that the polis/jandarma boundaries move as well. Maybe a little simplistic but there you are. From speaking to Turkish freinds then the Jandarma are essentialy striaght (Military discipline etc) whereas the polis are not always considered in the same light.
