Hamza Kulina

Hamza Kulina is a fictional character, a police detective portrayed by Edin Hasanović in the German crime television series "Tatort". He is currently newsworthy due to the premiere of a new "Tatort" episode titled "Fackel" (Torch) set in Frankfurt. In this episode, Kulina, along with his partner Maryam Azadi (played by Melika Foroutan), investigates a deadly high-rise fire that claims the lives of 13 people. The case draws Kulina back to a social housing district and confronts him with issues of construction flaws and building materials. The episode's plot, which involves a high-rise fire and faulty insulation, is drawing attention and comparisons to the Grenfell Tower fire in London, making the character and the storyline particularly relevant and significant.
