                      One flew over the cuckoo's nest.

On the night of 24 October, Rifat Kuş (whose surname means "bird") 
(23) and his relatives came to the emergency room of Sultan Murat I
State Hospital in Edirne and argued with the doctor on duty and another
medical staffer.  During the argument, Kuş took out a revolver from his
waist and threatened the doctor and the staffer.  Hospital security 
guards intervened to prevent the incident from spinning out of control.

Kuş was arrested and charged with "armed threatening" and a jail term
of from 6 months to 3 years was requested by the public prosecutor. 
Camera images of the incident were introduced into the court record.
At the first hearing, Kuş stated that "I'm not saying they ought to 
withdraw their complaint but they should at least wish me good luck." (!)

For his part, Dr. B.K. reaffirmed his complaint against Kuş and the two
others who came to the emergency room with him.  Medical staffer A.Ö.
noted that the three had played loud music in the emergency room 
despite admonitions from him and Dr. B.K.  They didn't shut off the
music and Kuş threatened them with a gun.  Kuş will remain caged (!)
in jail until the next hearing.
