Çiçek Sepeti, an online flower delivery site, decided to cash in on the infamous killer and the torture vehicles and advertised flower arrangements with the picture of the torturer and murderer and the vehicles used by the state to kidnap the Kurds.
Yesterday, during the Bursaspor-Amedspor soccer match, the football players and technical team of the visiting team from the Kurdish region in Turkey, Amedspor, were attacked, and posters of ‘White Taurus’ car pictures and ‘Yeşil-Green,’ the symbol of the unsolved murders in the 1990s, were displayed in the Bursaspor stands.
The ”Green” code named assassin was used by the Turkish state and intelligence services to torture and kill many Kurdish activists just for being Kurdish. The Turkish State used the “White Taurus” cars to kidnap, torture, kill, and dump the bodies of the Kurds the government thought to be subversives. Many authors, poets, journalists, artists, and an unknown number of ordinary people in the thousands were murdered using these state-owned cars.

‘White Taurus’ and ‘Green’
In the eastern Kurdish provinces of the 1990s, alleged police officers were putting citizens they had taken from their homes into Renault’s white Taurus model to take them. In those years, the people taken in the ‘White Taurus’ cars were never heard from again. The White Taurus still symbolizes unsolved murders and the disappeared today.
Mahmut Yıldırım, code-named ‘Green,’ was assigned by the National Intelligence Organization (MIT) to kill the PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan. It was revealed that Yıldırım, who wore a ‘green scarf’ to be distinguished by the security officers, was the shooter behind many murders committed at that time. It is claimed that Yıldırım is still alive and is in hiding.
