Apparently about a month and a half ago, rumours, apparently with Hasan Kuloğlu's approval, started spreading of an affair between he and Mehmet Taş's 25 year-old Moldovan wife. The woman returned to Moldova. However, according to the report, 50-year-old Mehmet Taş got in touch with the woman, who insisted the rumours were untrue, and moreover Hasan Kuloğlu had tried to rape her. Hasan Kuloğlu then travelled to Moldava, bringing his wife back to Cyprus.
Meanwhile, in Gaziantep in the east of Turkey, Mehmet Taş's 80-year-old Father, Ahmet Taş (shown below), had heard the rumours, and after deciding it was bringing disgrace on his family, decided to (quoting the report) give the order to kill Hasan Kuloğlu.
On the night in question at around 7 pm, 80-year-old Ahmet Taş, together with his two grandsons Umut and Mehmet Sait Taş confronted Hasan Kuloğlu who was having his hair cut at the Tanık barber shop in Lapta. Apparenty 21-year-old Umut Taş pulled out a gun and told Kuloğlu he was going to shoot him. In the ensuing arguement/struggle Hasan Kuloğlu's father arrived on the scene, and it was he, Bekir Kuloğlu that was fatally shot. Hasan Kuloğlu was also shot, but not fatally.
The gun used was unlicensed

Such stories are typical of what occurs in eastern Turkey, and, as Big Oz wrote on another thread, it is sad that it seems to becoming more common place here in Cyprus
