According to the news source of the tourism sector in Turkey, Turizm Haber Merkezi, Zübeyde Timur, who lives in Denmark and came to their hometown Adana a while ago with her daughter Hatice, 7 years old, went to Avanos district of Nevşehir and settled in DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Avanos. Upon learning about this, 53-year-old Yaşar Timur, a relative of Zübeyde Timur, whom she had divorced 3 years ago, first came to Adana and then went by car to the hotel in Avanos where her daughter and ex-husband were staying.
During an argument with his ex-wife, Yaşar Timur, who is also a Danish citizen, who he found swimming in the doubletree by hilton hotel avanos pool around 14.30, pulled out a knife and stabbed Zübeyde Timur and her daughter in the pool and fled.
The police and paramedics were dispatched to the scene upon the notification of the bystanders. The paramedics determined that Zübeyde Timur and her daughter Hatice Timur were dead. The lifeless bodies of the mother and daughter were taken to the morgue of Nevşehir State Hospital for autopsy, while Yaşar Timur, who fled after the incident, called the police and said that he wanted to surrender.
After the incident, Yaşar Timur wrote on his social media account, "I am calling out to everyone who knows me. Don't think of me as a murderer. They left me no other choice. I am not a murderous person who would kill his daughter. But I couldn't leave her alone without her mother and father in this ... world. What would she do, in whose hands would she be left? Now at least she will go to heaven without sin. All her sins and sins are on my neck." YaşarTimur, whose statement was taken, was arrested at Avanos Courthouse where he was taken after a health check at the hospital where he was brought under wide security measures and delivered to prison.
