Necmi Bahadır Denizcioğlu, who was martyred by the helicopter bombing the Presidential Complex, was known for his love of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
The 50 year old Denizcioğlu, who was from Giresun, was self-employed. He had a 22 year old daughter from his first wife and a 9 year old daughter from his second wife. He talked to his wife Pınar Denizcioğlu on the phone on the night of July 15th and said, “We know these traitors. We will go into the streets as well, we won’t let these looters tear us apart. Just voting is not enough.”
Denizcioğlu walked towards the Presidential Complex with his cousins to fight the putschist traitors. He was martyred as a result of the shots fired by the helicopter. Denizcioğlu was the first martyr brought to the Ankara Atatürk Hospital. His wife received the news when she came to Ankara on Sunday.
“I love Erdoğan’s love for his country”
Pınar Denizcioğlu said that her husband’s love for President Erdoğan was so intense that she would sometimes become jealous. One day she asked her husband why he loved President Erdoğan more than his family and Martyr Necmi Bahadır Denizcioğlu answered, “I love his love for his country, you wouldn’t be here if it were not for the country.” Pınar Denizcioğlu said her husband reached martyrdom because of his love for his country.
Martyr Necmi Bahadır Denizcioğlu was buried in Karşıyaka Martyrs’ Graveyard in Ankara on Sunday, July 18th.
