The Armenian soldier who died recently in a Turkish military unit was
gunned down by a Turkish nationalist, the Kurdish news agency Firat
reported.

Sevak Shahin Balikci who was serving in the Turkish gendarmerie was
killed by a bullet released by Kivanc Agaglu.

According to the Kurdish news agency, no sources revealed the Turkish
soldier’s name in earlier reports.

Agaglu’s nationalistic views are seen through his Facebook posts, says
the website.

Balikci died on April 24 in a military unit of the Turkish
gendarmerie. Official death reports indicate that his death was caused
by a gunfire accidentally released by a fellow serviceman.
