Kına gecesinde gelinin yakınları damadı öldürdü, annesini ağır yaraladı
                                    One for the books...


Eser Efsane (32) and Damla Efsane (27) ('efsane' means tale, myth,
fable, legend) met in Kahramanmaraş and decided to get married. 
The couple's families approved and three months ago they became
engaged.  Two months ago Eser and Damla were married ('nikah')
and began to prepare for the celebratory 'düğün' (wedding feast/
reception) in Gaziantep.

However (!), when the bride's family argued with the groom's relatives
about 'düğün' shopping, Damla's parents withdrew their approval,
prompting Eser and Damla, still very much in love with each other, to
run away to Kahramanmaraş. 

Family elders got together and Damla's parents relented.  A 'kına
gecesi' (night when the bride is painted with henna.) was organized
the night before last in Gaziantep, where Damla's father and brothers
stabbed Eser to death (!) and seriously injured his mother Meryem F. 
Four people have been taken into custody.
