According to the information obtained, the incident occurred in the evening hours in the rural Güvenir neighborhood of Birecik. Mehmet Hıdır Çakmak (55), a former president of the chamber of agriculture, had a son who argued with their relative Salih Ç. (28) in the Birecik district center due to a long-standing land dispute. The parties, who arrived at the rural neighborhood, explained the situation to the family elders.
