In happier times with dad...(if there were any).
Şinasi Gürkan's mother was killed by his father in Istanbul's Esenyurt
district in 2000. His siblings Serkan Gürkan and Akın Gürkan were
murdered in 2004 and Şinasi Gürkan was convicted of killing his two
siblings, going off to prison for 16 years. He claimed that his other
two siblings slandered him. In 2017, 20 days before Şinasi bey was to
be released from prison, his former wife Nedime Tigis was strangled
to death with a scarf by her boyfriend in Avcılar, Istanbul. (!)
When Şinasi bey got out of jail he began living with his sons Gökmen
and Göksel but they couldn't get along with each other. On 6 March
2019, Şinasi bey shot his two sons to death during an argument. Next,
sometime later, Şinasi bey shot his brother Mühendis Gürkan in his
home in Avcılar and then shot his brother-in-law Alihan Tiz and his son
Erdal Tiz in Başakşehir, resulting in the deaths of Mühendis and Alihan.
When captured by police, Şinasi bey told them: "if you hadn't caught me,
I was going to kill another 7 people." (!)
In court yesterday, Şinasi bey explained that: "the state made me rot in
jail for 16 years for a crime I didn't commit. In the 15 months since I
got out of prison, I discovered many betrayals. I confess to all my
crimes and am willing to accept my punishment." The court then
sentenced Şinasi bey to 4 life sentences but he reacted in a rage,
screaming at the judges: "Shame on you!!". At that point the "SEGBİS"
(courtroom live broadcast system) was cut off.
