UK - A Turkish waiter made a chilling death threat to the British mother who refused to let him marry her 15-year-old daughter, before stabbing her and her best friend to death. Recep Celik, 17, lured Marion Graham and Kathy Dinsmore, both 53, to a secluded wood and cut their throats because he was infatuated with Miss Graham's daughter Shannon who he had been dating for two years. Last week her mother Marion, 53, had a blazing row with Celik, who uses the name Alex. After he kicked Shannon during an altercation, Miss Graham ‘went ballistic’ and told him never to lay a finger on her daughter again. The waiter apparently responded by threatening to kill Miss Graham if she came between him and Shannon. Last night Turkey’s state-run news agency Anatolia said Celik had confessed to killing Miss Graham and her friend Cathy Dinsmore, also 53, who both came from Newry, County Down, Northern Ireland. Shannon was being cared for by an Irish Embassy official. ‘She is in an absolutely dreadful state but we are doing our best to comfort her,’ a consular source said. For several years Miss Graham, Miss Dinsmore and Shannon have been regular visitors to Turkey, where Miss Graham’s family own a holiday home in the popular seaside resort of Kusadasi. Shannon and Alex started dating after she and her mother visited the restaurant where he worked. Like many naive British girls who find love on holiday in Turkey, she was bowled over by his attention and soon found what started as a holiday romance turned into a marriage proposal. She travelled to see him every school holiday. Full Story>>
