A leading Jewish businessman was killed in Turkey on Saturday, allegedly by a young drug addict.
The construction tycoon, identified by the Israeli press as Uzier Garih, 72, was said to be one of the richest in Turkey and close to the regime there.
His body was found with eight stab wounds in the Jewish cemetery in Istanbul, a place he used to visit from time to time, the reports said.
Initial police reports said the murder was committed by Islamic radical groups. Later, an 18-year-old young man addicted to drugs and afflicted with a mental disorder was arrested as the prime suspect. He confessed to the crime, but gave no motive. Investigations are still underway – Albawaba.com
