Two of the victims, Fatma Bağcı and Rengiye M., were shot dead by their husbands on Saturday and Wednesday, whilst the latest incidents involved the abusive husbands stabbing their wives to death.
Rahime Yıldız Uçar, 21, was stabbed to death on the street by her abusive husband in Ankara on Wednesday. Her husband, Burhan Uçar, was handed over to police by local shopkeepers who witnessed the incident.
Rahime Yıldız Uçar, who worked as a cook at a shopping mall, married Burhan Uçar two years ago. However, after several severe instances of domestic abuse, the couple separated six months ago. Following this, Rahime Yıldız Uçar filed for divorce and moved into a new house with her 1-year-old son in the Eryaman neighborhood of the district of Etimesgut.
However, friends and family put pressure on Rahime Yıldız Uçar to drop the divorce case, telling her that she shouldn't break up with her husband because of their child. Rahime Yıldız Uçar gave into this pressure and went back to her husband.
On Monday, Burhan Uçar left his house after the couple had had a bad argument and did not return home. He then called his wife on Wednesday morning to ask if they could meet and discuss their marriage.
The couple met in 4. Etap Park on Eryaman TBMM Street, where they started arguing just minutes after they saw each other, during which Burhan Uçar pulled out a knife and stabbed his wife in the neck, heart and chest.
Burhan Uçar attempted to flee the scene of the incident, but local shopkeepers who witnessed the murder seized him and handed him over to the police. Rahime Yıldız Uçar died at the scene of the incident.
Burhan Uçar was then taken to the homicide unit of the Ankara Police Department, where he stated: "I loved my wife; however, we had many conflicts during our marriage.
I am a jealous person. She was seeing other men and she was seen with another man three days ago. When I heard about this, I left home. Today we met up in the morning, but she started insulting me. I lost my mind and do not remember the rest."
In a separate incident, a woman living in Düzce was stabbed to death after having an argument with her husband early on Thursday. Yılmaz T. stabbed his wife, Derya T., after the two argued.
After hearing loud shouting and screaming, neighbors of the family went over to the house and saw Derya T. unconscious lying on the floor. Derya T. was taken to Düzce Atatürk State Hospital, where she died. Her body was then taken to the hospital's morgue for an autopsy. Yılmaz T., who fled the scene of the incident, was apprehended by the police.
