You can see that far away, Montenegro look in his eyes...
Sarıgül Hamarat was just 17-years-old when she married Yunus Hamarat.
On 3 August 2018, Sarıgül hanım learned that her building contractor
husband had cheated on her but when she confronted him he beat her
and threw her out of the house. Sarıgül hanım reported the situation to
the police and entered a women's shelter on 4 August.
Her older brother Alican Sönmez and Yunus bey's older brother İmam
Hamarat brokered a reconciliation and on 5 August Sarigül hanım
returned home. When their elders left, though, the husband and wife
argued again and on 6 August Yunus bey took Sarıgül hanım to a wooded
area in Silivri, Istanbul. En route, Yunus bey wrote this phone message
to Sarigül hanım's younger brother Erdal Sönmez: "I'm taking your older
sister to kill her." Erdal Sönmez told no one about this message.
Yunus bey stopped his Jeep in a wooded area along the Kuşbahçe-
Büyükçavuşlu road and shot his wife one time in the chest. He then
washed his hands and put the gun in his dead wife's hands to make it
look like a suicide, which he reported to the Gendarmerie.
On 9 August, Yunus bey was jailed and the Silivri public prosecutor
opened a criminal case against him for murder aforethought. Yunus
bey stuck to the tale of Sarıgül hanım having committed suicide and
on 9 January 2019 he was released from jail to await his trial.
Yunus bey's telephone conversations and WhatsApp messages were
deciphered so the trial date was set for 10 November 2020, with
Yunus bey facing a life sentence and Erdal Sönmez up for a 12.5-
year sentence.
However (!), months later Yunus bey called his relatives from
Montenegro to say that he had fled Turkey. No official records
could be found about Yunus bey having left the country so the
assumption is that he was aided by human traffickers and made
his way to Montenegro with a fake passport.
Montenegro is called "Karadağ" by the Turks.
