	MARDIN - Relatives of father of 8 children, Lokman Görgün and HPG member Musa Kahraman, who were killed as "PKK member" in Mardin, suspect that 2 of them were executed by the contras.

	 

	The member of HPG Musa Kahraman (Xebatkar/Çiyager) and his uncle, Lokman Görgün, were killed in Cinata rural neighborhood in the Omeriya (Ömeryan) region of Merdin on April 8. Interior Minister Süleyman Soylu claimed that two people were killed as a result of the "operation" and made a statement on his social media account, "2 terrorists were found dead in Mardin Ömeryan with the PÖH and the Police Intelligence Operation"; however, residents and families state that 2 names were executed.

	 

	SOLDIERS HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT CONFLICT!

	 

	According to the information obtained from the residents and families of the region; There was no conflict in the area on the day of the incident. Allegedly, Uncle Görgün went to the rural area of the village on his motorcycle to pick up Kahraman, who was alone in the area on the day of the incident. While returning to the village on a motorcycle, 2 names were caught in crossfire and killed as a result of an ambush set up by unidentified people in a deserted area.

	 

	Upon the sound of gunfire, some villagers were searched by the soldiers in the police station in the region. The villagers, who moved to the place where the gunshots came from, saw a civilian vehicle moving away from the area. Soldiers came to the scene after the villagers informed them that they saw the lifeless bodies of Kahraman and Görgün. Soldiers posed with guns on their heads, leaving the bodies in bags. One of the photos in question was also shared by Soylu.

	 

	ARE THE COUNTER-GUERRILLA IN ACTION?

	 

	Another striking detail about the incident is the fate of the motorcycle used by Görgün and Kahraman. Families and villagers stated that the motorcycle disappeared after the incident. It remains unclear by whom the 2 names were killed. Families and villagers state that counter-guerrilla groups such as the "Dagger/Knife Team", which were involved in kidnapping, extortion, murder, torture, sexual assault and various crimes in the 1990s, were responsible for the killing of 2 people.
