A Turkish woman with a resemblance to Donald Trump has filed a paternity lawsuit claiming US President is her biological father and is demanding a DNA test to prove it.
The claimant, Necla Ozmen, 55, lives in Ankara, the capital of Turkey, and is reported to have lodged the case at the Ankara 27th Family Court on 25 September, asking judges to establish paternity and order genetic testing.
Necla says she was born in 1970 and is officially registered in civil records as the daughter of Sati and Dursun Ozmen, the couple who raised her. She claims she later learned she had been adopted, and that Sati told her the truth in 2017.
Necla alleges the baby swap happened in a hospital in Turkey around 1970, most likely in Ankara.
She claims Sati gave birth to a stillborn baby in hospital and that another woman giving birth at the same time, a US citizen Necla identifies only as Sophia, handed over her newborn to be raised and registered by the Ozmen family.
Necla alleges Sophia said the reason was that the child was the result of a forbidden relationship with Trump, and that the baby was then brought up by the Ozmen family as their own.
In interviews with Turkish media, Necla has said she can only guess how Trump and Sophia may have met but claims Sati told her Sophia showed a photograph of Trump when the baby was handed over and provided details about the father.
Necla has said she wants to speak with Trump and insists: “I don’t want to cause him any trouble. I just want to know the truth.”
The initial filing reportedly did not progress at first instance. The court is reported in the first instance to have rejected the petition, but Necla is appealing the ruling in the court, and has also sent a petitions to the US Embassy and to courts in the United States.
