On June 16, around 21:00, a horror occurred in the Feyzullah neighborhood of Maltepe district in Istanbul. According to the information obtained, Y.B.D. (17) fired two shots with a gun at Cihan D., who was walking on the street. Cihan D. escaped the incident without injury, while the suspect was caught by district police teams shortly after. During the search of the suspect, an unlicensed gun and 10 pieces of 9 mm ammunition were seized.
MESSAGES WITH THE "DALTONS" ORGANIZATION EMERGED
In his statement to the police, it was learned that Y.B.D. said he lived in Bahçelievler and had connections with a criminal organization called "Daltons." Y.B.D. stated that a person he knew from the neighborhood named "Doğancan" sent him to a café, where he obtained a weapon from someone he did not know.
ALLEGATION OF "SCARE FIRST, THEN INJURE" ORDER
Y.B.D. claimed that he went to Cihan D.'s house with the location and photo given to him and that he was asked to scare him by firing into the air. The suspect stated that he was called again by the same people a day after the incident, and this time he was told to injure the victim by shooting at his legs.
THE REAL TARGET TURNED OUT TO BE "THE MAN IN THE BLUE SHIRT ON MARMARAY"
Police teams deepening the investigation examined the messages between the suspect and members of the "Daltons" criminal organization in a preliminary review of the suspect's mobile phone. It was revealed that a planned armed attack was aimed at İbrahim Aktan, who was detained about 15 days ago for assaulting a man at Maltepe Marmaray Station in front of his children and is known on social media as the "man in the blue shirt."
FIRED BECAUSE HE THOUGHT HE LOOKED LIKE HIM
It was understood that the suspect Y.B.D. carried out the attack because he mistook Cihan D. for İbrahim Aktan, whom he recognized from a video. The investigation regarding the incident is being conducted under the coordination of the Organized Crime Fighting Branch and the Child Protection Branch.
