In the Konak district of Izmir, dentist Mustafa Emrah Düşmez, who was shot in the head by his former partner, who accused him of an illicit affair, lost his three-day battle for life in the hospital.
The dentist shot in the head by M.E. in the Konak district of İzmir has died.
The incident occurred on Friday, February 21, around 16:20 in an apartment on Alsancak Ali Çetinkaya Boulevard, where M.E. (35) came to the home of dentist Mustafa Emrah Düşmez (49). The argument that arose over a debt issue escalated into a fight, during which M.E. shot Düşmez in the head with a gun.
HE RECORDED A VIDEO AND SENT IT TO HIS MOTHER
While the unfortunate man lay in a pool of blood, the assailant, who took Düşmez's phone, recorded a video of the severely injured dentist and sent it to his mother. He then fled the scene. The woman, who was shocked to see the video of her son covered in blood, reported the situation to the police. In the examination conducted by the medical teams who arrived at the scene, the severely injured Mustafa Emrah Düşmez was taken to Tepecik Training and Research Hospital by ambulance. Despite all the doctors' interventions, Düşmez lost his life on the third day of his struggle for survival.
HE WAS ARRESTED
To capture the suspect who fled the scene, the Homicide Bureau of the Public Security Branch, the Crime Analysis Center (SAM) Bureau, and the Intelligence Branch teams initiated an operation. The police teams, who determined that the suspect was in the Basmane district, captured the fugitive suspect at the address where he was hiding, along with the weapon used in the crime. The detained suspect was sent to the police for processing. After completing his procedures at the police station, M.E. was arrested by the court and sent to prison.
"THE BIOLOGICAL FATHER OF MY 2 CHILDREN"
The statement of M.E., who was detained in connection with the incident, has emerged. According to the allegation, M.E. claimed that dentist Düşmez had defrauded him in a joint business they did 10 years ago, and stated that there was a feud between them over a debt issue. Furthermore, it is alleged that M.E. learned that his wife had a romantic relationship with dentist Düşmez and divorced her 2 years ago. Later, the father, suspicious, had a DNA test done on his 2 children from his ex-wife, claiming that the test result showed that Düşmez was the biological father of the children. Following this, M.E. shot dentist Düşmez in his home, saying, "I shot him, and not being able to contain my anger, I recorded a video and sent it to his mother."
