Turkish brothers wanted in connection with murder in Germany captured in Batman

Two Turkish brothers who allegedly killed a man in Germany were arrested in the southeastern province of Batman on May 13, state-run Anadolu Agency has reported.

The brothers, Mazlum Ö. and Süphan Ö., allegedly killed a man who was seeing their mother in Duisburg three years ago. The pair also inflicted stab wounds on their mother, although the woman survived.

Interpol issued a warrant for the two suspects in connection with the murder in 2014.

Turkish gendarmerie forces were informed about the pair and raided a house in Batman's Binatlı village after a month of surveillance.   

The brothers were taken to a police station following a medical check.

Police officers also stated that the suspects' identity cards were fake.
