Shadowboxing gets too real.
On 16 October, police in Ankara got word of a person injured in a
beating on Gökalp Avenue in Çankaya district. Arriving at the scene,
police found no one. Meanwhile, Özlem Gürgen, having heard no
word from her older brother Uğur Güzel (33) for two days, went to
his home on 18 October and had a locksmith open the door.
Özlem hanım found her brother passed out on the floor. He was taken
to a hospital but could not be saved. The initial medical examination
revealed that Güzel's nose had been broken by a heavy blow and the
bleeding in his brain caused his death.
Thinking that the report they received two days earlier about a
beating might be related to Güzel's death, police began to investigate.
Reviewing security camera footage, police saw the shadows of a group
of people beating an individual on the ground. Other video showed four
individuals getting into a taxi nearby and police were able to determine
their identities by means of a facial recognition system.
Ankara policeman Ahmet Gölgeoğlu cracked his namesake
case.
Yunus Emre Sözcü (27) and Ersin Demir (29) were taken into custody,
along with their girlfriends E.K. (29) and N.K. (19). In her statement to
police, E.K. explained that when she asked Güzel where the bus stops
were located, he cursed at her. This prompted Demir to say to Güzel
"watch your language!" and he head-butted Güzel. Then Sözcü kicked
Güzel lying on the ground.
Sözcü and Demir asserted to police that they beat Güzel because he
cursed at their girlfriends and admitted their guilt. They were both
jailed, while E.K. and N.K. were released after giving their statements
to police.
