Killer praised in blood-curdling murder! Outrage grows over unthinkable social media posts

Turkey was left in horror yesterday following two femicides that occurred half an hour apart in Fatih. A person named Semih Çelik murdered 19-year-olds Ayşenur Halil and İkbal Uzuner within a thirty-minute interval. After dismembering Uzuner's lifeless body, Çelik climbed the Edirnekapı walls and threw the head he had severed from Uzuner's body down. The perpetrator, who allegedly had psychological issues and was a substance abuser, then jumped from the walls and ended his own life.

POSTS FROM CERTAIN ACCOUNTS DRAW IRE

While the images in question caused public outrage, social media also erupted. As reactions to the rising number of femicides and the events themselves grew like an avalanche, posts made by certain accounts became the focus of the backlash.

SOCIAL MEDIA ERUPTS
