Runaway `dumped' by Turk.

RUNAWAY schoolgirl Rachel Lloyd has beendumped by her Turkishboyfriend, it was reported yesterday.

Married barman Mehmet Ocack, 24, has been refus-ing to return phone calls and text messages from Rachel, 14. The pair had met while Rachel was on holiday in Marmaris in the summer. They got engaged when she sneaked back to Turkey on a false passport in October. But Ocack was arrested on child sex charges after the couple were tracked down to his home in Gazi Antep near the Syrian border.

Her father Bob, a 42-year-old charity worker from Wrexham, North Wales, is not pressing charges to avoid prolonging t he furore over his daughter's fling. But he is nevertheless resigned to her continuing to fight to see her boyfriend. He said: ``Rachel is still madly in love with Ocack but he has not tried to get in t ouch. We just hope it's all over.'' Before she ran away, Rachel was living w ith her grandmother Carol Lloyd, 60. Rachel's divorced mother Karen Thomas, 40, had called for help from Wrexham Social Services.
