Claims that the rock Muhammed Salah sat on in Trabzon was stolen proved to be unfounded

It has been confirmed that claims spreading on social media suggesting that the rock Muhammed Salah sat on in a Trabzon highland was stolen do not reflect the truth and that the photo in question was created using artificial intelligence.

Social Media Posts

Social media posts by Muhammed Salah, who is regarded as one of the most successful players in the history of the English league and transferred to Trabzonspor at the beginning of the season, continue to spark widespread reactions.

The image shared from the highland on September 14 by the Egyptian footballer after coming from Liverpool to Trabzon drew a flood of fans.

The Claim That the Rock Was Stolen

While many people visiting the spot in the photo shared by Salah posed on the same rock, claims soon emerged that the stone had been removed from its place and stolen.

In some shared images, claims suggesting that a pit had formed in the area where the stone was located and that the rock was no longer in its place spread rapidly on social media.

Artificial Intelligence Detection

As a result of examinations, it became clear that the image presented as proof that the rock was stolen and circulated on social media was not real.

It was understood that the image was produced using artificial intelligence tools due to inconsistencies such as the clouds remaining stationary, the position of the shadows, and other details in the surroundings.

Official Verification

The Anadolu Agency Trabzon Regional Directorate also officially confirmed in a statement regarding the issue that the news does not reflect the truth.

It was reported by authorities that the relevant rock remains in its place and that football fans and supporters continue to visit the region.
