Personal life edit

On 12 March 2015, when Bulut played in the youth academy of Ajax, he was arrested along with teammates Zakaria El Azzouzi and Aschraf El Mahdioui for assaulting a plainclothed policewoman. The officer suffered shoulder injuries and various bruises. She later filed charges against the three players.[2] A day later, Ajax announced in an official message that they had suspended the players.[3] Later that week, El Azzouzi remained the only suspect in the case. Bulut was allowed to make appearances for the Ajax A1 youth side again after serving a month suspension. As punishment, he had to inform the youth players of Ajax together with El Azzouzi and El Mahdioui.[4]
