              Tufan bey noticed he was too smart lately. 

The day before yesterday, an argument erupted between brain surgeon

Dr. Burak Yürük (34) and his patient Tufan Saraçoğlu at Ömer 

Halisdemir University Training and Research Hospital in Niğde, with

Tufan bey stabbing Dr. Yürük four times in his head and body.  A

security guard intervened and Tufan bey was apprehended, while Dr.

Yürük was treated for the stab wounds - he is in good condition. 

It turned out that Dr. Yürük had performed an operation on Tufan

bey for a brain tumor 7 months ago and, according to Tufan bey, "he 

implanted an artificial intelligence  chip in my head!"   As for 

Dr. Yürük, he stated that "After the operation, he came by for check-ups

from time to time, and later I learned that he was taking drugs and 

acting strangely.  On the day of the incident, he came to my room 

and demanded his money back and attacked me." (!)
