Soldiers performing an identity check at a control point in front of the Abalı (Korxa) Gendarmerie Station on Amed-Bingöl road raided bullets on the driver of a car claimed to have disobeyed a warning to stop.

23-year-old Muzaffer Gürül's car was raked by soldiers when he reportedly didn't stop and continued his way during the control on the road.

The youth who was critically wounded after being hit in the head by a bullet was taken to Lice state hospital in an anbulance called by another person driving by the scene.

Gürül was referred to the Dicle University Hospital in Amed after receiving initial treatment in Lice. According to the information obtained from the doctors, the youth was hit in the head by a bullet.

It is guessed that Gürül, whose relatives said he didn't have a driving licence, may have therefore avoided stopping at the control point.
