The 'Opium Murderer' who killed 8 people explained it one by one in his statement: First I counted from 10, then from 5.

Blood-curdling details were included in the interrogation at the police station of fugitive suspect Arif Sefa Özdemir (28), who was captured in Seyitgazi district of Eskişehir after terrorizing the villages of Ayazini, Kıyır and Yukarıtandır in İhsaniye district of Afyonkarahisar with a shotgun. The suspect, who stated in his statement that he was a combine harvester operator, stated that he had been drinking heavily since the morning hours, put his rifle and a bucket full of cartridges in his vehicle and went to the meeting place.

"I MADE MY MIND TO KILL, I AIMED AND SHOT THEIR HEADS"

Explaining the beginning of the massacre, the suspect said that he bought a combine harvester from Kırşehir resident Noman Toprak, and that there was hostility between them due to the burned combine harvester and the remaining debt. Arif Sefa Özdemir stated that after meeting at the entrance of Gazlıgöl, he pulled the people to the rural area of Ayazini village and said, "We argued, and after this discussion, I decided to kill these people. I pulled the people to the rural area, saying 'Let's go to get money from my father and look at the fields'. I blocked them with my transit vehicle to prevent them from escaping. I approached the vehicle, aimed at their heads and fired 2 shots to kill Numan, who was in front, and the person next to him. Then "I shot at the person behind me, and when I saw him moving, I shot him one more time and made sure he was dead," he said.

HE CONFESSED THAT HE TAKEN A VEHICLE AND A LIVE TO ESCAPE

The suspect, who admitted that he carried out repeated attacks to change vehicles on the escape route after the first murders, said that he shot and killed Seydi Ahmet A. and Satı A. in the vehicle with plate number 35 AG 5198, which he stopped on the Kıyır village road, and stole their vehicles, on the grounds that they did not give them their vehicle and tried to take the rifle. The suspect stated that he killed the driver of the vehicle, İsmail Ş., by shooting him in the head after he saw the rifle and said that he would call the police, and that he opened fire on a tow truck (truck) that he claimed trapped him in the Selimiye village area.

HE STOPPED THE TEACHERS' CAR AND COUNTED BACKWARDS

The suspect stated that he seriously injured Sevgi P., who did not give her car in the center of Afyonkarahisar, by shooting her in the head, and that he stopped the vehicle with teachers in the vicinity of Yukarıtandır village. Describing those moments in cold blood, the suspect said, "As I approached the Yukarıtandır village of İhsaniye district, I blocked the front of the black vehicle to change the vehicle. There were three women in the vehicle. The one in the front seat got out. I told the person who got out that I had killed many people and that I needed a vehicle to escape. The other two people did not get down. First I counted down from 10, then from 5. When I saw that they did not get out and did not put down the phone, I shot and killed both of them, aiming separately. "I did not harm the person who got out of the vehicle," he said.

HE PRESENTED AS A MYTH AND ASKED THE HEADMEN FOR A PISTOL

Arif Sefa Özdemir, who said that after shooting the teachers, he hijacked another vehicle by rear-ending it and then went to the Eskişehir Seyitgazi border, admitted that he hijacked the vehicle of citizens collecting mushrooms in Kırka and Taşlık neighborhoods, and then another vehicle at gunpoint. The suspect, who stated that he tried to obtain a gun because the rifle was large, said that he found the houses of the headmen in the villages he entered, introduced himself as "inspection officer from Ankara" and "MİT personnel", and tried to buy their service pistols, but was unsuccessful.

CAUGHT AS A RESULT OF A CHASE

The suspect stated that he continued to escape on foot after the vehicle got stuck in the mud, and that he stole a vehicle with the keys on him in Taşlık District, and that he escaped by not obeying the gendarmerie's "stop" warning, and that he fell and was caught while trying to get out of his vehicle and escape on foot. At the end of his statement, the suspect said, "I regret what I did, I did not know what I was doing under the influence of alcohol."
