The first statement of the murderer in the massacre in Afyonkarahisar has emerged! He explained the reason for the murders

Arif Sefa Özdemir, the gunman in the Afyonkarahisar shooting that killed eight people and left one seriously wounded, has given his first statement to investigators. According to his testimony, he killed three victims over a dispute stemming from a combine harvester (biçerdöver) purchase and the remaining five in order to seize their vehicles. The attack took place in the İhsaniye district of Afyonkarahisar province. The case matters because the death toll of eight makes it one of Turkey's deadliest recent single-incident shootings, and the motive had initially been unclear. Investigators are expected to verify Özdemir's account against witness statements and security footage as the investigation proceeds.
