A grim new detail has surfaced in the killing of 33-year-old Gülşah Oktay in the Turkish city of Trabzon. She was shot seven times in the middle of a street by her 51-year-old ex-husband, Aydın Yediparmak. Reports on the case now reveal that two weeks before the murder, Oktay saved the shooter's life. Yediparmak had swallowed medication in an apparent suicide attempt, and she was the one who got him through it. Fourteen days later, the man she had helped opened fire on her in broad daylight. The revelation has stunned many in Turkey, given the cruel irony at the center of the story. It also feeds the wider debate in the country over violence against women and the protection of women facing threats from former partners.
